Flash Micropython to Pyportal Pynt

Post by dougconran »

I have a Pyportal Pynt running Circuitpython 7.0.0. Is it possible to flash this with Mircopython? Currently, when I try to do this I get the following error message :-

Code: Select all

>python esptool.py --chip esp32 --port COM6 erase_flash
esptool.py v3.2-dev
Serial port COM6
Connecting........_____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____

A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header
when trying to do the initial erase. I am running the command with Administrator privileges and have confirmed that the device is on serial COM6

The PyPortal Pynt is a SAMD51 board with an ESP32 co-processor. It will not run the MicroPython ESP32 code.
