suggested software for flashing Artery under Linux?

[DrYak]

Hi!

The linked post on MSX forum only mentions Windows software for flashing Artey chips.

On Linux I have tried using dfu-util v0.11, but it fails at the unprotection step with:

dfu-util: Wrong state after command "READ_UNPROTECT" download

Is there a suggestion for successfully flashing from Linux? Or trying to dust out some Windows VM and forwarding it the USB port is the only solution? Thanks!

I haven't tried it I'm afraid. My guess is that dfu-util would need patching.

I successfully flashed an Artery from Linux. But it turned out easy enough I didn't write it down... I have dfu-util 0.11. I think it involved "ignore the error message" and maybe "power cycle the Gotek." I might have also used lsusb to determine the device for --device.

I get the same "READ_UNPROTECT" on linux. anyone has more info on how to flash on linux?

Beased on ejona86's response I would try ignoring the error, reconnect the Gotek, and try the line sudo dfu-util -a 0 -D FF_Gotek-v3.*.dfu

I just used the UART / serial bootloader. Worked great. Self-updates from the USB stick work well too to keep things updated.

So, I ignored the error and continued with the next command. After that I had to update my gotek with the upd file and everything works.

I was able to boot my mpc2000.

So I guess just dfu-util is enough.

Thanks

Hello @all,

I had some problems to flash the firmware with a USB-TTL. Following my solution based on a thread at the Amiga forum.

My environment is: Ubuntu 21.04 with stm32flash 0.5 and a USB TTL from D-SUN.

First the read protection has to be switched off: $ sudo stm32flash -k /dev/ttyUSB0 Then clear the memory: $ sudo stm32flash -o /dev/ttyUSB0 Finally, the firmware can be flashed without any problems. $ sudo stm32flash -vw FF_Gotek-v3.29.hex /dev/ttyUSB0

Below are my mistakes to make this thread easier to find. Switching off the flash write protection was acknowledged with an error: $ sudo stm32flash -u /dev/ttyUSB0 stm32flash 0.5

I wonder if using dfu-util on a mac would work too! 🤔

[coredump4]

I would love it if it worked on Macs. Under macOS Monterey, with dfu-util v0.11 and libusb v1.0.24 built from Mac Ports, I got this when trying to erase an STM32F105: dfu-util: dfuse_download: libusb_control_transfer returned -7 (LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT)

It actually worked for me with the same errors on the 1st command, as described above.
