see guide below...
I keep forgetting to bring up a issue with that guide so here: That guide does not mention the Linux bugs that are now present in the recent makemkvcon's. I know this because someone asked me a couple months ago on how to do it and I referred them to that guide and of course they later said they couldn't start the flashing. Taa daaaaaaaaa... bugs! I don't think the bugs will ever be fixed but since the older versions seemingly still operate as a flasher without a license key, then maybe fix the guide to a specific Linux version like 1.17.6. There's no reasoning for someone trying to flash the first time to suffer such a silent and confusing bug.
