[Resolved] Flashing an ESP8266EX results in garbage output on boot

Hi all, I thought this might help folks out, in the end flashing was not the problem at all, it was using a USB adapter to extend the number of USB's I had available, this seems to have borked the flashing.

I confirmed with a few other folks that they also get the junk at the top which, as was mentioned, is just debug bits with at a different baud.

I am now able to flash all varius ESP boards I have, and can confirm the combined file is fine:

esptool.py 
  --port /dev/cu.wchusbserial1410 
  --baud 115200 
  write_flash 
  --flash_freq 80m 
  --flash_mode dio 
  --flash_size 4MB-c1 0x0000 
  espruino_2v04_esp8266_4mb_combined_4096.­bin

I have another few boards to set up too so I can confirm all is good. But just a note to all others, if your having serial problems and are using a USB hub, that is likely why.
