This questionnaire is about devices that can be updated via USB bulk storage, i.e. that you can update the firmware on the device by copying a file onto a mounted volume.

What's the vendor and product name of the device? e.g. BBC Micro:bit *

Does the volume automount, i.e. you just plug it in and a disk appears? If not, what do you have to do, e.g. "hold button BOOTSEL while inserting"

Yes

Other:

Clear selection

What's the USB VID and PID for the device you insert? You can see this using "lsusb" e.g. 090c:1000

What's the IdLabel for the mounted volume? You can see this using "udisksctl info -b /dev/sdaXXX" where XXX is the new block number

What's the IdType for the mounted volume? You can see this using the same "udisksctl info -b /dev/sdaXXX"

What's the IdUUID for the mounted volume? You can see this using the same "udisksctl info -b /dev/sdaXXX"

What's the UUID for the mounted PARTITION? You can see this using "udisksctl info -b /dev/sdaXXX"

Does the mounted volume show the old firmware binary?

Yes

Clear selection

Does the old firmware binary have a predictable name? e.g. FIRMWARE.BIN If so, what is it?

It remembers the custom filename of what I copied onto the volume

CURRENT.UF2

Other:

Clear selection

Does the volume have an extra file with information about the current firmware? e.g. MANIFEST.JSON -- If so, what is it? If you've got a link to a real world example that's even better!

INFO_UF2.TXT

Clear selection

Can you provide a link to some example firmware for this device?

Many thanks for helping me! Can you provide your email address so that I might be able to contact you for any follow-up questions?
