To flash an ESP8266 on Linux, you need the esptool as it is shipped with Arduino IDE or as standalone tool, see github [https://github.com/igrr/esptool-ck source] and [https://github.com/igrr/esptool-ck/releases/ binary releases].

Felix [http://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2105 posted a script in the forum] that works like the windows flash.cmd script:
 +
 
 +
    #!/bin/bash
 +
    read -e -p "Serial Port                          :" -i "/dev/ttyUSB0" comport
 +
    read -e -p "Flash Size (example 512, 1024, 4096) :" -i "4096" fsize
 +
    read -e -p "Build (example 71, 72, ..)          :" -i "120" build
 +
 
 +
    size="${fsize}K"
 +
    if [ $fsize -gt 1000 ]; then
 +
            size=$(($fsize/1024))"M"
 +
    fi
 +
 
 +
    echo "Expected Flash Size: $size"

    echo "Using com port: $comport"

Flash script for linux

To flash an ESP8266 on Linux, you need the esptool as it is shipped with Arduino IDE or as standalone tool, see github source and binary releases.

Felix' script

Felix posted a script in the forum that works like the windows flash.cmd script: 

   #!/bin/bash
   read -e -p "Serial Port                          :" -i "/dev/ttyUSB0" comport
   read -e -p "Flash Size (example 512, 1024, 4096) :" -i "4096" fsize
   read -e -p "Build (example 71, 72, ..)           :" -i "120" build

   size="${fsize}K"
   if [ $fsize -gt 1000 ]; then
           size=$(($fsize/1024))"M"
   fi

   echo "Expected Flash Size: $size"
   echo "Using com port: $comport"
   if [ -f ESPEasy_R${build}_${fsize}.bin ]; then
           echo "Using bin file: ESPEasy_R${build}_${fsize}.bin [FOUND]"
           ./esptool -vv -cd nodemcu -cb 115200 -bz $size -cp $comport -ca 0x00000 -cf ESPEasy_R${build}_${fsize}.bin
   else
           echo "Expected bin file: ESPEasy_R${build}_${fsize}.bin [NOT FOUND!!!]"
   fi

Thonshic's script

The following script tries to find the esptool binary

  • in Arduino IDE install paths
  • in a dir of the PATH variable
  • the local directory (with the script and firmware files)

You get a choice of firmware files, either with dialog or by number. 

   #!/bin/bash

   selectst=""
   for i in ESPEasy*bin
   do
           selectst="$i $i off $selectst"
   done

   # check for esptool
   esptoolbin=$(which esptool)
   if [ ! -x "$esptoolbin" ] ; then
           if [ -x "./esptool" ] ; then
                   esptoolbin="./esptool"
           else
                   eardu=$(find $HOME/.arduino*/packages/esp8266/tools/esptool/* -name esptool|sort|tail -1)
                   if [ -x "$eardu" ] ; then
                           echo "found esptool: $eardu"
                           esptoolbin="$eardu"
                   fi
           fi
   fi
   if [ ! -x "$esptoolbin" ] ; then
           echo "esptool not found, you can link it here or put in \$PATH"
           exit 2
   else
           echo "using esptool $esptoolbin"
   fi

   read -e -p "serial device, (USB2serial devices: $(ls /dev/ttyUSB*)):" -i "/dev/ttyUSB0" serdev

   if [ ! -r "$serdev" ] ; then
           echo "device '$serdev' does not exist"
           exit 2
   fi

   if [ -n "$(which dialog)" ] ; then
           cmd=(dialog --radiolist "Select firmware" 22 76 16)
           choice=$("${cmd[@]}" ${selectst} 2>&1 >/dev/tty)
   else
           # bash only, do it with an array
           fa=(ESP_Easy_*.bin)
           cnt=0
           nfa=${#fa[*]}
           while [ $cnt -lt $nfa ]
           do
                   echo $cnt ${fa[$cnt]}
                   ((cnt++))
           done
           read -p "choose number of firmware file to flash [0-$((nfa-1))]: " nsel
           choice=${fa[$nsel]}
           if [ ! -f "$choice" ] ; then 
                   echo "cannot find file \"$choice\", exiting"
                   exit 2
           fi
   fi

   echo "----"
   read -p "flash $choice? [Y/n]" yn
   if [ "$yn" != "n" ] ; then
       "$esptoolbin" -vv -cd nodemcu -cb 115200 -cp "$serdev" -ca 0x00000 -cf "$choice"
   fi
