I need to set the HOME_POS manually since it isn't printing in the center of the bed. But whenever I try to upload it to the Melzi 2.0 board I get an out of sync error.

I am using Arduino IDE on Manjaro Linux, I was able to upload Marlin to the board on Windows 10 but I have since removed that OS. I have the correct settings for the board: Sanguino Atmega 1280 or 1280P (16mhz)

Here is what I have tried to get me this far:

  • Running Arduino IDE as root (administrator) which fixed the permission denied error
  • Changing the Board and the processor settings
  • Uploading a fresh Marlin firmware with no changes
  • Uploading a simple program to my Arduino UNO which worked
  • Changing USB Ports (USB 3.0, USB 2.0)
  • Changing the Baud Rate from 115200 to 57600

Here is the (verbose) error message

  • $\begingroup$ So it was already running Marlin (uploaded from Win10)? You could have used M206 to change the offsets instead of uploading a completely new firmware. On topic, this is a very common and generic error message, a troubleshooting answer can be found here. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Your board might be using the old bootloader which needs a 57600 baud rate for uploading instead of the default 115200. You'd need to modify that in the respective boards.txt $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @towe I tried that it did not work ( I added it to the question now to help narrow it down) $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 15, 2020 at 3:02
  • $\begingroup$ That's odd. Enable "Show verbose output during: ... upload" in your IDEs settings please. That should give you the avrdude line the IDE uses to try to upload to the board. $\endgroup$

Okay thanks to @towe for helping me I figured it out. my Baud Rate was set to 115200 but my board is using the old bootloader so it needed to be 57600. I Changed my boards.txt file to that but the verbose console printed: Overriding Baud Rate : 115200 turns out you need to change it in the serial monitor as well (the little magnifying glass in the top corner of the IDE) after that everything worked great thanks for all the help!
