Updating EEProm

Since Raspberry Pi 4, Raspberry Pi flagship devices use an EEPROM bootloader. The main difference between these and previous products is that the second-stage bootloader is loaded from SPI flash EEPROM instead of the bootcode.bin file used on previous products.

More Info

You can update the eeprom via the following commands on a functioning/booted board:

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade -y
sudo rpi-eeprom-update -a
sudo reboot
