Flashing a bootloadHID-unit from Linux

Post by MWP » Sat Jul 18, 2009 3:36 pm

Hello everyone!
First I would like to thank Christian for this community and all the projects. It really expands the usage possibilities for the atmega family (which I love).

Now, I am working on a project which will include bootloadHID on a ATmega324p running at 20 Mhz. Soon I will flash bootloadHid onto it, but first I want to make sure how I can flash via USB from Linux once the bootloader has been flashed with avrdude.

Does anyone know about programs that would work?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah I sort of would like to know this also. I think you can compile the source if you have a c++ development suite on you linux box but I'd like an application that lets you specify the PID yourself like FlashTool for windows. I dont think one exists but I do think someone out there can make it relatively easily. Personally I have 0 experience in linux GUI development.

Here is the source if you can compile it in linux.

Actually I would know whether it still possible to use avrdude with this type of bootloader. And what parameters I have to use in this case.

Hello,

BootloadHID is working just fine for me under Linux. You can read about it here:

I hope this helps you get bootloadHID working in your device too.

Here is the device I'm using it in:

I'm slowly (very slowly) improving it to the point where it's a saleable product.

Mitch.

Try syslinux or use dd like that
dd if=/dev/sda bs=9400K of=/tmp/sda1.hda.img
dd of=/dev/sdb bs=9400K if=/tmp/sda1.hda.img
