[Q] Nexus 6 bootloader unlock problem on linux

Greetings. Looking for some pointers.



Just picked up a Nexus 6 (64) "unlocked" (carrier?) from Amazon and am having some trouble unlocking the bootloader.

Downloaded android-sdk_r24.1.2-linux.tgz, and then downloaded some additional packages, APIs 21 and 22.

Then on the phone I did the multi-tap on Build number to get the developer mojo, then set USB debugging and Enable OEM unlock. The USB debugging prompt showed, I checked the box to always allow and then OK.



The phone reported that updates were available, so I let it update to 5.0.1 and after a restart, updated to 5.1.



After all that, ran "./adb reboot bootloader" from the console which returned immediately - no console output.



BTW, the desktop is a Linux box running Fedora 20 64bit.



Following the ./adb, I ran "./fastboot oem unlock".

It responded with: no permissions fastboot



The text on the phone shows below the identifying stuff:

Console [NULL]: null

Device is LOCKED. Status code 2



Transfer Mode: USB Connected.



Then I ran ./android again and noticed the Google USB Driver rev. 11 and the note about it being Linux incompatible.



So how badly have I screwed this up?



Any help would be much appreciated.
