Flash firmware from Raspberry Pi?

Is there a way to push firmware upgrades to the MK3 from an attached Raspberry Pi? I've got a dedicated Pi setup for Octoprint, seems like it wouldn't be a bad idea to be able to flash from the Pi as well.

Updating from a. raspberry pi via serial pins is still being worked on. I do not know if USB is supported but I imagine it is.

Going to give this a shot. Not sure what to choose for AVR MCU type or AVR programmer type.

You need to ssh into Octoprint first and install avrdude:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install avrdude

Then:

Path to avrdude: /usr/bin/avrdude
AVR MCU Type: ATmega2560
AVR Programmer Type: wiring

This is how I installed the official 3.1.2 build and it worked.
