W01 OEM + L01 reference board + Expansion board 2.0: ampy is possible?

@formica You shoud also tell the result of uos.uname()

[formica]

@robert-hh
(sysname='WiPy', nodename='WiPy', release='1.7.0.b1', version='v1.8.6-621-g17ee404e on 2017-05-25', machine='WiPy with ESP32')

@formica The release level is quite old, so you might consider updating. I tried ampy yesterday with a board running release 1.17.3.b1, and it worked.
You can still upload code through ftp/WiFi, as you surely know. And, since you have an expansion board, you can also use an Micro-SD card, at least for initial transfer.

@robert-hh
No way robert.
Now my uname gives (sysname='WiPy', nodename='WiPy', release='1.17.3.b1', version='v1.8.6-849-83e2f7f on 2018-03-19', machine='WiPy with ESP32') but 'ampy' is still unusable...

Maybe I have to modify something in the boot.py?

@formica I just retested it with the standard build - no problem. My boot.py is empty.
Do you close the Atom window or other REPL windows during upload? You have to.

@robert-hh
Yes, nothing in the background.
Tried with 'ampy -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 115200 put myfile.py' without any result.

@formica What is the error message?

[formica]

@robert-hh
No error.
Just hangs up the terminal and I have to type CTRL-C.

:(

[robert-hh]

@formica does any other ampy action work, like 'ls' or 'ls /flash'?
and the usual brute force hammer on linux, running it with sudo?
