hi,
i am just new to the whole thing. i am using debian linux and have tried to create a bootble update stick for the ford of my friend.
i am unsure if i did it right.
SYNC Region: EU
Navigation Variant: Nav
Manufacturer Year: Pre MY20
Install Type: Unknown
Old SYNC Version: 3.0.25306
New SYNC Version: 3.4.23188
Do you have a error message, if so what is it?
i did not update yet. i am just unsure if the usb i tried to create is ok.
i created a script that copies/wgets some files to usb.
the result looks like so:
ls -R /media/tom/ford-update/
/media/tom/ford-update/:
autoinstall.lst reformat.lst SyncMyRide
/media/tom/ford-update/SyncMyRide:

i also formatted the stick as exFAT and
tried “install-mbr /dev/sdb” on my stick to have it booting.
is there anything missing?
i am unsure about the old version. 3.something. the version i entered is probably wrong.
another important question for me is: what are my risks? is there a risk to brick the sync in a car from 2017?
i really dont want to make it worse with the update attempt.
what i forgot to mention: the display of my friends car does only at start show the ford logo and turns then black seemingly forever. there is the hope that a software update fixes this problem.
