How do I flash `boot.bin` instead of `<afws_directory>`?

dtsevas

artiq_coremgmt [-D IP_address] -s <destination_number> flash <afws_directory>

That's great, but I compiled boot.bin myself. How do I flash it? By passing the absolute path of its local directory in place of <afws_directory>?

I went into the directory that contains my boot.bin and ran

artiq_coremgmt -D 192.168.1.30 -s 1 flash .

Here is the error log:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Ok, I turned this into https://github.com/m-labs/artiq/issues/2667 because I think it's an actual Artiq bug and not a problem with <afws_directory> vs. a self-made local directory.
