Were you able to see anything in the attached logs? If the obexd logs 
are missing, can you please tell how I should capture them?

I also tested with Ubuntu 20.04 (*linux-image-5.11.0-27-generic*) and 
21.10 (*linux-image-5.13.0-19-generic*) live systems booted from a USB 
storage device, and transferring `/usr/bin/systemctl` 
(`/lib/systemd/systemd`) with size of 1.8 MB worked fine.

Could there be a regression in that area? Unfortunately, it’s not easy 
for me to do a bisection on the device at hand.

(Would it be possible to do with QEMU and USB controller and Bluetooth 
device passthrough? How can I transfer the file on the command line so I 
wouldn’t need to install a desktop environment?)


Kind regards,

Paul
