I also compiled a `klipper.bin` using the latest version of Klipper, however, it is untested; [klipper-v0.11.0-198-g33b18fd6-latest-UNTESTED.bin](./misc/skr-mini/klipper-v0.11.0-198-g33b18fd6-latest-UNTESTED.bin).
1. Download [firmware-USB.bin](./misc/skr-mini/firmware-USB.bin). Connect the SKR-Mini to the Raspberry Pi via USB connection. 💡 This is the option that most users will want.
2. Download [firmware-USART2.bin](./misc/skr-mini/firmware-USART2.bin). Use TFT port USART2 to communicate with raspberry pi. Connect the UART-TX of raspberry pi with the USART-RX2 of motherboard and connect the UART-RX of raspberry pi with the USART-TX2 of motherboard directly to communicate normally.

1. Rename `firmware-USB.bin` or `firmware-USART2.bin` to `firmware.bin`. ⚠️ Make sure the microSD card has been prepared using the instructions found [here](https://github.com/bassamanator/Sovol-SV06-firmware#prepare-the-microsd-card-for-flashing).
Important: If the file is not renamed, the bootloader will not be updated properly.
2. Copy `firmware.bin` to the root directory of the microSD card (make sure the card is in FAT32 format). 1. Rename whatever firmware file you're using to `firmware.bin`. ⚠️ If the file is not renamed, the bootloader will not be updated properly.
