esptool.exe error: argument --chip/-c: invalid choice: 'p' #135

I just tried to flash my d1 mini as described in the wiki. When running the command as described: esptool -cp COM6 -cd nodemcu -cb 921600 -cf ino.bin -ca 0x200000 -cf fs.bin

I get the following error:

I'm using the latest version of esptool (4.3)

how's going there? any progress? Thanks

rvdbreemen commented 1 year ago

@summerfind the wiki has been updated to fix some issues with the latest ESP tool.

Just follow the instructions here: https://github.com/rvdbreemen/OTGW-firmware/wiki/How-to-install-firmware-on-your-ESP

@rvdbreemen Any particular reason the wiki still suggests to use a tool that is not maintained any more since 2018?

It seems a better solution to move to the official ESP tools and get that supported.

rvdbreemen commented 1 year ago

@0crap nothing wrong with a working tool, even if it's old ;-)

But the official tools will not flash 0.9.5 bin's for some reason. I have not tried to get it to work with esptool.py.

The next release will be flashable with the official ESP tools once more (already verified).
