Flashing HP15CE with linux

[Idnarn]

Update: Please see a newer post in this thread for updated steps that I used to flash on Linux using a different fork of BOSSA.

Can you try the BOSSA tool and see if flashing with it works?

* Compile it from source from master branch of: https://github.com/shumatech/BOSSA
* Also merge this PR that adds support for SAM4L devices before you compile: https://github.com/shumatech/BOSSA/pull/143

For git commands to get to this tree state, see the commands prefixed with $ below:

With Debian bookworm (such as for a Raspberry Pi 5 user), it'll also need the following patch to bump the wx version dependency:

Code:


diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 650fa65..2645392 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile
@@ -4,7 +4,7 @@
 # Version
 #
 VERSION?=$(shell git describe --tags --dirty)
-WXVERSION=3.0
+WXVERSION=3.2
 
 #
 # Source files

I confirm that BOSSA properly compiles with the above on Debian bookworm, but I don't have a screwdriver handy right now to connect my HP 15C CE and try it.
