Updating firmware from linux with the ST Micro CUBE programmer #linux


 

Here is the document that I had referred to showing how to update a NanoVNA with the ST Micro Cube programmer.

Tim,

Could you point to this post containing the howto? I don't see anything from you in this group regarding the cube software.

Thanks Tim. This appears to be quite comprehensive. I hadn't been aware that the Cube software was available for Linux, so this might come in handy in the future.

Between that, and ST having end of life'd the dfu tool, at some point, it will likely become the only option. As other have noted, though, the idea of lean, efficient, *small* software appears to have died . . .

In any case, that's why I used Cube - the one product will work on many platforms. Huygen has .bin files of his distros, so all that is needed is for DSLord to drop .bin images as well as the .dfu (Since Cube can't read .dfu *files*, yet programs via the dfu *interface* . . .) Yeah, I could build to .bin, but am generally unmotivated to setup a build environment for this, since I don't plan to do NanoVNA development . . .
