Using NuttX Zmodem with a Linux Host
====================================
The NuttX Zmodem commands have been verified against the rzsz programs
running on a Linux PC. To send a file to the PC, first make sure that
the serial port is configured to work with the board:
$ sudo stty -F /dev/ttyS0 57600
$ sudo stty -F /dev/ttyS0
start rz on the Linux host:
$ sudo rz </dev/ttyS0 >/dev/ttyS0
You can add the rz -v option multiple times, each increases the level
of debug output. If you want to capture the Linux rz output, then
re-direct stderr to a log file by adding 2>rz.log to the end of the
rz command.
NOTE: The NuttX Zmodem does sends rz\n when it starts in compliance with
the Zmodem specification. On Linux this, however, seems to start some
other, incompatible version of rz. You need to start rz manually to
make sure that the correct version is selected. You can tell when this
evil rz/sz has inserted itself because you will see the '^' (0x5e)
character replacing the standard Zmodem ZDLE character (0x19) in the
binary data stream.
If you don't have the rz command on your Linux box, the package to
install rzsz (or possibily lrzsz).
Then on the target:
> sz -d /dev/ttyS1 <filename>
Where filename is the full path to the file to send (i.e., it begins
with the '/' character).
