Not seeing rock-5b-spinor.cfg file in RKdevtool v2.96

Hello all, I’ve followed the instructions from this page:
https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock5/install/spi
and got up to option 3, step 2

and I don’t see the file that is shown in the screenshot of the guide.
Here is what I see in my RKdevtool:

and these are the files I see when I load config:

What could I be missing here?

I also have a mac on hand so I’ve followed the mac instructions but the first time I tried to run the rkdevelopertool db command this is what I encountered:

$ sudo rkdeveloptool db ~/Downloads/rk3588_spl_loader_v1.08.111.bin
Downloading bootloader failed!

and now when I try to run it again after disconnecting and reconnecting, I get stuck on
Downloading bootloader....

If anyone can provide some help, I would really appreciate it!

Sorry for not updating the tool in time, it has been updated now. You can download it again.

Hi @feng thanks for updating the tool! I have a question.
I was able to get a workaround from a discord conversation and was wondering if I should still follow the documentation.

The work around was to double the field in the rkdevtool and change it to spinor like the following screenshot:

Should I still follow this guide? https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock5/install/spi

@feng - I too am using a mac and have used the recent files provided via the WiKi page but get the same issue:

sean@mac ~ % sudo rkdeveloptool ld                                
DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x350b,LocationID=1404   Maskrom
sean@mac ~ % sudo rkdeveloptool db rk3588_spl_loader_v1.08.111.bin
Downloading bootloader failed!

Any help would be appreciated
