spider board on usb
I picked up a Voron 2.4R1 with a spider 1.1 board. I flashed it with a newly compiled klipper firmware and through dmesg -T --follow I can confirm it boots correctly:
However, RatOS refuses to detect it and Im stuck on step 1 configure (with a manual flash button).
Any ideas please?

When I use my original SD card with fluidd (that came with the voron), I can change printer.cfg with the
/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_stm32f446xx_300044001050563046363120-if00
and restart klipper, it will work.Rat-OS expects a different ID so you need to flash it again with the Rat-OS compiled firmware
Thanks. I did create it from RatOS in the terminal, I need to set the bootloader offset to 64KiB
After compiling a firmware from the RatOS gui wizard, can I enter the terminal and do make menuconfig to adjust to 64KiB? The settings should be saved to .config file right?
Apparently we can. Its working. It would be nice if the GUI version with the flash button allows for adjusting the 32KiB default to 64 KiB bootloader offset, since some boards before a certain date require that
So after that config and getting into mainsail, it doesnt recognize the board. I need to edit the serial: line and after that, it throws errors about z_uart pins in mcu config. Im back to fluidd 😉
i'd take more time to troubleshoot and help fix these but its not my printer and im running out of time
yes, but once klipper is updated it will be overwritten with the 32kb bootloader offset.
way too much work for a board that almost nobody uses
I know of 3 people lol
the correct fix is to flash the 32kb bootloader
that the v1.1 ships with
Yeah, RatOS is best when you use supported hardware configurations (currently the spider isn't supported for the V2.4, which is experimental), you can do everything you normally can in klipper though, you can paste an entire config in the user overrides section if that's what you wanted.
