Install OLIMEXINO-328
by LadyMM
The olimexino-328 is an arduino-like borad, which runs programs called
“sketches”. The programs themselves are written in C/C++ and compiled in the
Arduino environment and then uploaded to the board’s memory via miniUSB.
Special drivers and settings are needed, however, for your computer to
correctly recognise the board. Installation instructions are below.
