Unplug the USB cable, wait 5 seconds, and plug it back in again (...) Here's (...) (18 years ago, 20-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

What is the method to load the pbLua firmware, preferably in OS X? It's a .bin file so NXT-G doesn't recognize it. I tried renaming it to a .rfw file and it succeeds but then gets stuck in samba click mode. Then I tried libnxt's fwflash, holding (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
