So to get this image you need to install a Chrome extension (http://flash.getchip.com/ http://flash.getchip.com/). Impressive, but is there a way to get and flash the image without Chrome?

  Thanks. Looks like it uses fastboot (like Android).

    ROM bootloader initially, chainloading a flasher that supports fastboot, if I remember correctly. Most Allwinner hardware is relatively brick-proof thanks to this.

it doesn't work with USB 3.0 though. I couldn't find a usb 2.0 hub and I'm stuck. They need to figure that out.

  It's not just the CHIP that is affected by crappy USB 3 controllers, I can't flash any of my phones via the USB 3 ports on either of my workstations. It's been over half a decade, one would think the stack would be mature by now.
