Hi
I am unable to make rpi-eeprom-update work on a rpi4 jeos image downloaded today.
localhost:~ # /usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-update
BOOTLOADER: up to date
CURRENT: Thu Sep 3 12:11:43 UTC 2020 (1599135103)
LATEST: Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 UTC 1970 (0)
RELEASE: critical (/lib/firmware/raspberrypi/bootloader/critical)
Use raspi-config to change the release.
VL805_FW: Using bootloader EEPROM
VL805: up to date
CURRENT: 000138a1
LATEST: 000138a1
It is unable to find LATEST version. Adding a -L to find makes it look at the links, and installing binutils to have strings makes things look good. But it is not able to update the eeprom during reboot:
localhost:~ # /usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-update -a

EEPROM updates pending. Please reboot to apply the update.
To cancel a pending update run "sudo rpi-eeprom-update -r".
localhost:~ # systemctl reboot
How see what goes wrong during eeprom update during boot?
