The fwupd software used by many traditional Linux distributions (not Android or - ChromeOS) has a bug breaking connecting to fastboot devices. The web installer - takes slightly longer to connect to the device and is more impacted by this. If - you're on a Linux distribution with fwupd running, stop it before proceeding. You - can do this by running the following command in a terminal:
+Debian stable and Ubuntu have an outdated fwupd package with a bug breaking + connecting to Android's bootloader interface (fastboot) while fwupd is running + since it tries to connect to arbitrary devices. This section can be skipped on + Arch Linux and other distributions with fwupd 1.9.10 or later since we reported + the bug and it was fixed. This never impacted Android or ChromeOS.
+ +You can stop fwupd with the following command:
sudo systemctl stop fwupd.service+ +
This doesn't disable the service and it will start again on reboot.
