<code>28.0.0</code>. Don't proceed with the installation process until this is set up
properly in your current shell. A very common mistake is using an outdated copy of
<code>fastboot</code> from a Linux distribution package not receiving regular updates.
- Make sure that the <code>fastboot</code> found earliest in your <code>PATH</code> is
- the correct one if you have multiple copies on your system. You can run <code>which
- fastboot</code> to determine where the tool being used is coming from. Older versions
- do not have support for current devices. Very old versions of <code>fastboot</code>
- from several years ago are still shipped by Linux distributions like Debian and lack
- the compatibility detection of modern versions so they can soft brick devices.</p>
