−I flashed an Adroid update earlier today. This was done from Windows using Odin and it worked like a charm.

−This approach requires me to boot into Windows, though which is quite an interrupt in the daily procedure. So I thought I'd give Odin on Windows running in a VirtualBox  a try. After some fuzzing around I was able to flash the same update again. Here's the steps I used to prepare my VirtualBox:
+
−
+
−* download the Windows drivers for Samsung Galaxy S (e.g. from Softpedia) and install
+
−* shut down Windows
+
−* connect the Samsung Galaxy via USB
+
−* in the VirtualBox Manager define an USB filter<br>![VBox USB settings](|filename|/images/VirtualBoxUSB.png)

−* power up VirtualBox and use Odin to flash
