Flashing Espruino fails, bootoader LED not pulsating

Thanks. That worked. Switched to a Win7 laptop. Firmware updated. Running blinking-led. Was earlier running on Ubuntu 10.04 with Chrome v27

Learning:

1. The IDE works fine on Ununtu 10.04 with Chrome v27 except for firmware updates.
   
2. For firmware updates switch to a Windows7 machine.
   
   

One request regarding the latest firmware - would help if it shows the red led 'on' when connected properly as was the case with the earlier firmware. Confirms that the USB connector is plugged in properly.

Thanks once again.
