  Hi, I just got a Luckfox Pico Ultra W, but it's not going well. I learnt that the upgrade tool doesn't work on Linux ARM or Linux macOS, and error messages are not very good, for example the tool will segfault if you don't use `sudo`, it's a random binary that is difficult to trust. Overall it's been a nightmare experience IMHO.
  
  Now I'm using a Debian 12 machine x86_64 architecture. Could someone help with getting me started to flash my first luckfox device?
