Unable to flash Evil Crow RF

I was able to compile fine, but when I run:

sudo PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0 make flash

It looks like it's trying to flash the Evil Crow. Lights on it are blinking. Then, I get this: Any ideas what I'm doing wrong:?

docker run --rm -it --device=/dev/ttyUSB0:/board --env-file build.env rfquack/rfquack

I asked over at the Evil Crow Github, and it appears to be incompatible with VMWare. I'm using Windows, running Ububtu in a VM. I had the same problem with the Evil Crow firmware, but since it was an INO sketch, I could easily compile it using Arduino for Windows, and it worked fine. Is there a way to compile and flash RFQuack under Windows?

Hi @phretor

The problem is that this does not work correctly on virtual machines. I have recommended you to do this on a physical machine

I have not tested the installation on Windows, but on Ubuntu it works perfectly

@RChadwick7 Try to do this on a physical machine, don't use virtual machine

@joelsernamoreno @RChadwick7 have you solved this?

imagina9900 commented

just had the same experience yesterday flashing my evil crow v2 in a VM on VMware. @RChadwick7 needs to press the button as soon as it says "Connecting" and it will flash without issues. This is not a VMware incompatibility since mine worked with the same scenario.

joelsernamoreno commented

Hello

One person made a fork of rfquack for Evil Crow RF V2. Check this out:

https://github.com/akito45/RFQuack

I haven't had time to test this yet, but one person has confirmed that this works with Evil Crow RF V2.

Try not to use virtual machines to flash this.

Let me know if this works

Thanks

phretor commented

I saw a PR from @akito45 - I'm waiting for him to rebase against the newest master, which has changed a lot since the last commit.

phretor commented

@RChadwick7 @joelsernamoreno @imagina9900 - I encourage you to check again with the new build framework. Very likely you're not going to need any VM. Just a sane Python environment installation.

Check this out: https://rfquack.github.io/RFQuack/usage/dependencies/

phretor commented

Closing for no activity. @RChadwick7 @joelsernamoreno @imagina9900 let me know if you have any updates on this. So far, @jimilinuxguy has confirmed that the current version works on ECRF v2.
