How to create OTA files: user1.bin/user2.bin

PostPosted: Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:31 pm

Anyone know how I can create the user1.bin and user2.bin files for over the air updates per the link using esptool.py?

http://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=413

With the Makefile I have I can make the 0x00000.bin and 0x40000.bin files. I assume I would have to tweak the Makefile somehow. The gen_misc.sh script doesn't do anything for me.

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

The esp-link project has a complete example and working OTA upgrade: https://github.com/jeelabs/esp-link
The end of the README has a description of how the Makefile and upgrade process works.

Hey I am new to ESP8266, I have created two files (0x00000.bin and 0x40000.bin) with the Unofficial SDK Example. How to add OTA support?

I read the esp-link page but I am still clue less. Any explanation will be helpful.

Thank you.
