If you have a serial console connected to +your board, you will see the
progress and a message on the console will indicate when +the flashing
is completed.

Trying to boot from which looks right, the date+time are good.

With a smaller image (~90MB) the flash update worked. Maybe

I
also had the same experience as Trevor, that the led seems to flash
every 2 seconds. Also the code indicate that 2 x 1 sec sleep is used in
this area, so please go through the above description when it comes to
led experience during flashing. Another minor comment is that I believe
you should update the UBI_IMAGE example in README to use the "default"
meta-chip hwup image (chip-hwup-image-chip.ubi).
