oops! sorry, my mistake, I had an old debug configuration which failed due to 
the missing file and I did not investigate further.

I confirm that the old Olimex probe works with the new ftdi interface.

I also fixed the blog post, please check it and let me know if you have further

right. do you have a specific suggestion? I wouldn't go for very complicated 
cryptographic tools only to check the integrity of some files, job that some 
time ago was successfully performed by a simple checksum.

thank you, I personally do not use windows at all, but, if you want, we can add 
a paragraph to the blog post announcing this new feature, and possibly other 
features. 

feel free to send a pull request, the page is publicly available at:
