+= Using ST-LINK =
+
+ST-LINK is STM's implementation of the [https://developer.arm.com/products/architecture/cpu-architecture/debug-visibility-and-trace/coresight-architecture/serial-wire-debug | Serial Wire Debug (SWD)] protocol.
+Think of it as JTAG if you're more comfortable with that.
+
+== Getting an ST-LINK programmer ==
+
+ST-LINK is built into all(?) of STM's Nucleo and Discovery evaluation
+boards, which can be had for as little as US$10 from [http://mouser.com Mouser]
+or [http://element14.com element14] ([http://newark.com Newark] in
+the Americas, [http://farnell.com Farnell] in Europe).
+
+We have tested with STM32F0DISCOVERY and STM32F4DISCOVERY (both with ST-LINK
+v2.0) and NUCLEO-F411RE (with ST-LINK v2.1).
+
+=== Connecting the ST-LINK programmer to the Alpha ===
+
+On the STM board, remove the pair of ST-LINK jumpers (CN4 on the F4DISCO,
+CN2 on the F0DISCO and NUCLEO). Then locate the 6-pin SWD header (CN3 on
+the F0DISCO, CN2 on the F4DISCO, CN4 on the NUCLEO), and connect it to J1
+on the Alpha board (top, just left of center).
+
+This photo shows the correct orientation of the cables (both boards
+oriented so that the logo is right-side up):
+
+[[Image(IMG_20170512_205557_s.jpg)]]
+
+NOTE: The STM boards have an unfortunate tendency to short unexpectedly, so
+I recommend putting them in an enclosure. In this case, I've cut holes in
+the original packaging.
+
+== Install OpenOCD and the debugger ==
+
+{{{
+$ apt-get install gdb-arm-none-eabi openocd
+}}}
+
+== Get the `debug` and `flash-target` scripts ==
+
+If you don't already have a cryptech source tree somewhere, get the source distribution, e.g.
+{{{
+$ apt-get source cryptech-alpha
+}}}
+
+The scripts are in `sw/stm32/bin`.
+
+== Re-flashing the Alpha ==
+
+=== To reflash with our binary firmware ===
+{{{
+$ tar xfz /usr/share/cryptech-alpha-firmware.tar.gz
+$ flash-target hsm
+}}}
+
+
+What you should see is something like:
+{{{

+
+== Debugging the Alpha ==
+
+This site shows several ways to use various debuggers to debug the
+firmware in an STM32:
+
+ http://fun-tech.se/stm32/OpenOCD/gdb.php
+
+There is a shell script called 'bin/debug' that starts an OpenOCD server
+and GDB:
