StickOS for Freescale MCF51JM128 Badge Board Bootloader (v1.82*) (.S19, ColdFire Badge Board MST bootloader image)

Copy the S19 file onto the mounted badge
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ umount /mnt/badge

Unmounting seemed to trigger the flash load (see LED's on the board)

Disconnect board
Reconnect board
See StickOS scrolling banner on LEDs (Hurrah!)

reboot
Now see /dev/ttyACM0 exists (also, dmesg prints)

Setup minicom... as root, as it refused to save config otherwise...

sudo minicom -s -D /dev/ttyACM0

selecting the option “save setup as dfl”.

should make config file

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ cat /etc/minicom/minirc.dfl
