This is one for Pascal.
Even though I have no trouble communicating back and forth between my calc and Mac OS X emulator, especially since finding and installing the most up-to-date FTDI driver for Mac, I can't seem to flash using the new flashing tool.
I am preparing the calc for flashing as I do with MySamba--turn ON with EXIT, hold ERASE, RESET, ON, release ERASE, RESET again, ON--but the flashing tool tells me it can't communicate with the calc after I press Send, even though I have chosen the correct port from the list presented.
I know this isn't a dead battery issue, since I can simply go into Windows and flash with MySamba just fine.
Am I doing something wrong here? Is there a different way to prep the calc for flashing? I am pretty sure this is not a hardware issue, as I am up and running perfectly in serial communication between emulator and calc. In particular the SENDA-RECV combo, which is what I use pretty well exclusively right now, works just fine both ways.
I have a 30b, the FTDI usb-serial converter sold by Eric Rechlin, up-to-date FTDI drivers installed, and am trying to flash with the most recent calc.bin file (2706) from the Sourceforge SVN. I am running Lion 10.7.3 on an old iMac with plenty of RAM.
Many thanks in advance.
