Will it update over the isolated serial link? Can I simply ssh into the tinypilot and type this?
Or do I open the controller, connect USB to the nano, and to a system that has a keyboard and display and the code in order to "type make upload"?
It will update over the isolated link but you need to apply power to the controller just as you upload, or press reset button right at upload. You can also wire a usb uart adaptor to the isolated serial link.
Otherwise, it's possible to use the usb port of the nano, the controller should not be powered.
You can type the command 'make upload' from the directory at least on openplotter. I don't have the avr toolchain installed on tinypilot. Maybe in the future it will, but for now it's better to use a linux system with avr-gcc and avrdude to update the controller
