[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

This is not reproducible for me, and this format of backtrace is not useful for debugging. Please capture a core file under gdb, or a full backtrace under gdb with the heimdall-flash-dbgsym ddeb package installed.

Also, what commandline did you invoke heimdall with, against what kind of device?

[Expired for heimdall-flash (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

[hello (argh)]

Bug is still there!!!
How do I capture a core file. I can see how to do it if it is running but it dies almost straight away so this is not practical.

Trying to flash MJ5 bootloader to N7105 samsung galaxy note 2 international version.
