Thanks to the anonymous contributor who sent me reverse-engineered documentation of the BitFORCE Single firmware upload protocol, BFGMiner 2.6.5+ now include a tool for flashing BitFORCE Singles on Linux. I don't know if it works for other BFL devices, and I make no guarantees that this won't fry your device - but it does work for mine at least Smiley

To use, simply build BFGMiner with BitFORCE support (enabled by default) and run (substituting your device's path and the firmware filename you want to flash):
Code:
bitforce-firmware-flash /dev/ttyUSB0 alphaminer_832.bfl
