<b>*) How can I flash a new rootfs?
*) How can I flash a full FIASCO image?
Unpack the pieces from the fiasco firmware (the one distributed by Nokia for example) and then type:
# 0xFFFF -R -p rootfs.jffs
# 0xFFFF -M FiascoFirmware.fiasco -f
<b>*) How can I flash a full FIASCO image?</b>
Advanced commands:
It is not recommended to use, it needs more testing, and is more secure to unpack them first manually
and flash the pieces manually with multiple '-p' flags. If you are brave try:
# 0xFFFF -F FiascoFirmware.fiasco

*) How to extract the firmware pieces from a running device?
It is possible to dump the firmware pieces from the internal MTD to reconstruct a FIASCO image.
To do this recompile the flasher for ARM and run this command in the device:

<b>*) Dumping configuration region</b>
There's a hidden mtd partition containing undocumented configuration information. This one can be
dumped from the device using the following command:
