After a little more googling it seems as though avrdude is what's required. From: https://github.com/OctoPrint/OctoPrint- ... stallation
AVRDUDE needs to be installed on the server where OctoPrint is running.
Raspberry Pi
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install avrdude
We'll see how that goes...

I'm trying to update/upgrade my CR10S to Marlin using the Firmware Updater function in Cura.
After selecting the updated firmware file in Cura, you're supposed to set the "Flash Method". There are two choices:
1) arvdude (Atmel AVR family)
2) bossac (Atmel SAM family)
In some other online guide about updating firmware, there is this note:
"For 8-bit MCUs the tools is avrdude, for 32-bit MCUs the tool is bossac."
I'm guessing the CR10S has an 8-bit processor rather than 32-bit, but I have no idea. Does anyone here know?
And while I'm on the topic, is there an easier way to update the CR10S firmware? What's the simplest way?
