While in past there were reports of unreliable upgrades, the consensus in [issue 11](https://github.com/Ralim/ts100/issues/11) is that things work mostly as expected in Linux.
You may try, without any guarantee of success. The general procedure is the same as for Windows, the differences are in the way to mount the unit and copy the firmware.
@awigen has contributed a script [flash_ts100_linux.sh](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ralim/ts100/master/Flashing/flash_ts100_linux.sh) that works on Ubuntu 16.04 as well as other distro's.
If you want to do it manually (or if the script does not work for some reason) the general procedure is the same as for Windows, the differences are in the way to mount the unit and copy the firmware.
Remember that after flashing, the firmware filename will have changed to end in `.RDY` or `.ERR` or `.NOT` and only `.RDY` means the flashing was successful!
So far, what we know:
* The unit has to be mounted as ```msdos``` type (thanks @balrog-kun for having spotted it). You may disable automount, but unmounting the automounted drive and remounting as msdos works fine.
* The unit has to be mounted as ```msdos``` type (thanks @balrog-kun for having spotted it). You may disable automount, but unmounting the automounted drive and remounting as `msdos` works fine. You do not need to turn off automounting, but you do need to unmount the device with `umount`.
* It is recommended to use an all-caps filename for the firmware, even if successful flashing were done with lower case names.
* Avoid USB hubs, plug directly in your computer.
* If it fails, try again several times the procedure.

Device will reboot and automount will rerun if not disabled.
Check the extension of your firmware, it should be `.RDY` now.
