OK, so here’s a summary of how I was able to successfully get things working on Arch Linux:

```auto
pacaur -S arduino arduino-builder arduino-avr-core arduino-ctags avrdude
sudo usermod -a -G uucp $USER
# re-login
sudo ln -s /usr/share/arduino /usr/local/arduino
cd /usr/share/arduino/hardware
sudo ln -s archlinux-arduino arduino
sudo ln -s archlinux-arduino tools
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/arduino/tools/avr/bin
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/avrdude /usr/share/arduino/tools/avr/bin/
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/arduino/tools/avr/etc
sudo ln -s /usr/share/arduino/hardware/archlinux-arduino/avr/bootloaders/gemma/avrdude.conf /usr/share/arduino/tools/avr/etc/

```

I made a custom `make.sh` just to make life a bit easier in the `Model01-Firmware` that just packages the recommendations made together (I use fish so that just makes life easier)

```auto
#!/bin/bash

make ARDUINO_BUILDER_PATH="/usr/bin/arduino-builder" \
     ARDUINO_PATH="/usr/share/arduino" \
     ARDUINO_LOCAL_LIB_PATH="../arduino-local" \
     AVR_GCC_PREFIX="/usr" \
     ARDUINO_TOOLS_PATH="/usr/share/arduino/tools" \
     AVR_SIZE_PATH="avr-size" \
flash

```

Here’s my results (hitting PROG-ENTER)

```auto
lhl@ono4 ~/A/Model01-Firmware> ./make.sh

Connecting to programmer: .
Found programmer: Id = "CATERIN"; type = S
    Software Version = 1.0; No Hardware Version given.
Programmer supports auto addr increment.
Programmer supports buffered memory access with buffersize=128 bytes.

Programmer supports the following devices:
    Device code: 0x44

```

I get an error using the Arduino IDE (it complains about finding `avr-g++`) but I’ve confirmed that I can just edit the `Model01-Firmware.ino` file directly and the make fwill push the code over. Sweet.

You can check out my fork to see what changes I’ve made: [https://github.com/lhl/Model01-Firmware/commits/master](https://github.com/lhl/Model01-Firmware/commits/master)
