Weird flash loop (No bootable app partitions in the partition table)

[J0y8993]

So I am trying to flash an ESP32-WROOM-32 and I encounter two errors.
I am currently following along the Embedded Rust on ESP32 Book and I am on chapter 2.4.
I got some CC-Linking errors, when building the repo on NixOS (does anyone maybe know why as a side note?). Because of this I ditched NixOS for flashing and I am currently using the Docker container linked in the Book.
So here is a short video of what those errors look like.

1. I get a timeout when I run cargo run -- --list-all-ports. I have to add the --no-stub flag, in order to make it work 100% of the time. (Idk why, but without the flag it only flashes some times.)
   Here the error message of the timeout:

esp@c36d78ffe227:/workspace/intro/hardware-check$ cargo run -- --list-all-ports 
    Finished `dev` profile [optimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.10s
     Running `espflash flash --monitor target/riscv32imc-esp-espidf/debug/hardware-check --list-all-ports`

2. This is the main error. I am in a weird flash loop after entering the flash command. The full error (before repeating itself) looks like this:

Does anyone know hot to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance!
