Flashing the RB5 from Mac OS X?

So far I have been interacting with the RB5 via the Android Debug Bridge (adb) on my MacBook.

I did also install the Thundercomm SDK Manager on a Linux box in EC2.

The README in Thundercomm's SDK Manager includes some instructions for flashing the RB5 from Windows and various versions of Ubuntu. It does not state any explicit support for Mac OS X.

Nevertheless, I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to do it - is it possible to flash an RB5 from Mac OS X?

Hi jhwill , 

You can try with Docker Desktop for Mac 

You can Download docker desktop (https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop)

Then install ubuntu on docker & then try flashing from ubuntu 

Thanks &  Regards,
