Dear all,
on a standard linux distro, flashing microcontrollers like arduino,
esp32, and many others is quite straightforward. Of course I may
mimick this on qubes: create a "flash" qube, give it acces rights to USB
controller, run alternatively sys-usb or "flash" and flash as I would
on any other linux distro.
However I wonder what would be the best "qubes way" to do it. I imagine
leaving sys-usb as it is (only qubes with HW access) and "forwarding"
data stream from a "flash" qube to sys-usb. One point here is that in
contrast with harddrives, mouses, keyboards etc these chips are usually
"silent": when you plug them on usb they do not communicate (they only
take power). Therfore the "attach XXX" to qube YYY menu will not be
click-able, so I might need to do all "by hand" in a dom0 terminal?
Maybe some of you have already solved this question before me?
best, Bernhard
