Configuring RAD for Duemilanove

[stephenfritzle]

I have been trying the past couple of days to configure RAD to run
with my Duemilanove and atmega 328p. I have tried using arduino-0012,
14, and 15.

I apologize if my problem has been covered, but I checked rigorously
evertwhere I could trying to figure it out and had no luck.

Also sorry this is kind of a noob question I am not very familiar with
Linux or bash.

I set up everything following the instructions at the RAD installation
guide I found on this site (http://radinstallation.blogspot.com/) as
well as a review covered in the RAD avrdude timeout message thread
(http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-arduino-development/browse_thread/
thread/6a0636f29a71ab28) and both times I could compile my sketch
fine. But when I went to upload the sketch I receive an error tell me
that ~arduino-0015/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avrdude doesn't exist, when
I know I created a link to that directory, and I can see the file.

Sorry this isn't the most comprehensive description, I am not infront
of the machine I have been working on, so if any further info, such as
the trace, is necessary I can post it tomorrow.

Thank you very much, I hope I can get this to work I would love to
work with RAD :).

if you are using ubuntu, there is a rake task to handle the
installation for you. ( run "rake -T" to see all rake tasks ) if not,
then you can follow along and confirm that the same steps are taken on
your system.

to get a functional system, i had to do a number of extra steps not
listed in that installation guide you linked to.

Here is the file that lists the steps for a functional linux system

http://github.com/atduskgreg/rad/blob/16d82d37d59100d8d144e0673171a879e3e7ab29/lib/rad/linux_installer.rb


let me know if this works..

Thank you for your reply colin.

I am running ubuntu, I tried rake -T and i didn't see a rake task like
you mentioned, unless I am misunderstanding what you mean.

So I followed along with the steps in the LinuxInstaller.rb and as you
said there were steps that the other guides missed, however I still
got the same result.

I know that avrdude is linked, I am looking right at it.

I really hope we can figure this out soon, I have to get this going
for a project for school >.<

If I can't get working soon I think I'm gonna have to give up on rad
for now :(.

Anyway thank you for your time, hope to hear from you soon.

At least one problem is easy to see. The Duemilanove loads sketches at
57600 baud, NOT 19200!

[jdar]

Anybody out there get a build to work with an ArduinoBT? Right now RAD
seems to assume a USB serial. Haven't found that override yet.

Is there a recommended way to build for other configurations? In my
head, a class inheriting the proper serial baud would seem the right
design. I'll muck with that, or whatever you think the right
architecture is. (Lemme know.)

Darius,

Check makefile.erb lines 63 & 77 for ports and upload rates.  Re: building for other configurations -- How about something along the lines of a method call in the sketch like:

arduino_type "bt"

jd

[Greg Borenstein]

A better spot would be in config/hardware.yml. You can add an optional
entry for board_type with defaults.
