"make cload" error in WSL2

[Yuhang-Yohoo]

Hello devs!
I had some problems when I was trying to upload the firmware via Crazyradio and debug in Vscode, WSL2, Windows.
The instruction I followed is this.
I am not sure if this is caused by WSL or my configuration.

The first problem happened when I tried to make cload:

The second when I tried to connect to the drone through emulator:

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

I solved both of them.

for the first problem

I finally realized it was caused by the Python fault in Windows. To make it work, be sure:

• Upgrade python and pip in Windows.
• Check the PATH is set added in environment variables(mine is in user variable).
• Set the target crazyfile to BootLoader mode before "make cload"

The last step is omitted by the "on-chip debugging" instruction but can be found in other documents.

for the second problem

My emulator is Jlink12 from SEEGER, I tried to reach the cortex via Jlink console and found the Crazyfile chip can only be visited in SWD mode. So the solution is ：

• in launch.json, change first item of configFiles to "interface/jlink.cfg"
• add a new line in jlink.cfg : "transport select swd". You can find it in openocd/scripts/interface.

And then I can enter the breakpoint in main.c.

Aslo another suggestion is this tutor includes some deprecated expressions, an updation will be helpful for new beginners.

Thanks a lot for posting the answer! I started looking at the documentation and indeed it is not up to date with the latest WSL development. I have started working on updating it.
