Error on writing to boot partition about mtkclient

[bkerler]

Can you rerun using --debugmode and upload the log ?

I noticed partition boot doesn't exist on my device and also boot_a, but partition boot_b. I'm using python 3, So when writing it, I did: python3 mtk w boot_b boot.img and went successfully. It does return with an error message on Windows that did partition doesn't exist, but on Linux/LiveDvd, it returns with USB Overflow. Thanks for a great work.

$ mtk --debugmode

Two months after the last release

Please make a new release so downstream packages can update. It's something like 2 years old

MTK Flash/Exploit Client V1.6.1 (c) B.Kerler 2018-2023

usage: mtk [-h]
           {script,printgpt,gpt,r,rl,rf,rs,ro,w,wf,wl,wo,e,es,ess,footer,reset,dumpbrom,dumpsram,dumppreloader,payload,crash,brute,gettargetconfig,peek,stage,plstage,logs,meta,da}

Even the new one...

$ grep --text --only-matching debugmode

One (destructive) workaround is to sed -i 's/INFO/DEBUG/g' mtkclient/* then "recompile"
