Found a good starting point to talk with the MSP430, but sadly it runs into a weird bootloader password issue.

aha! So the tutorial uses a capital P where the flag should be a small p. Or not, maybe the password stuff is set somewhere else or while compiling. writing the ./prebuilt firmware worked.

board=goodfet42 goodfet.bsl -p goodfet.hex

Well that wasn't really a solution, but somehow I got it to except the firmware, probably by using the "fromweb" flag for it, where it wasn't confused by all that.

Found a good starting point to talk with the MSP430, but sadly it runs into a weird bootloader password issue.

aha! So the tutorial uses a capital P where the flag should be a small p. Or not, maybe the password stuff is set somewhere else or while compiling. writing the ./prebuilt firmware worked.

board=goodfet42 goodfet.bsl -p goodfet.hex

Well that wasn't really a solution, but somehow I got it to except the firmware, probably by using the "fromweb" flag for it, where it wasn't confused by all that.
