I have gotten stuck while flashing micropython firmware into the board.
Erasing flash finished with success as you can see below:
esptool.py --chip esp8266 --port /dev/ttyUSB0 erase_flash
esptool.py v3.2
Serial port /dev/ttyUSB0

Chip is ESP8266EX

Erasing flash (this may take a while)...
Chip erase completed successfully in 11.7s
but flashing the firmware is not

A fatal error occurred: Failed to write compressed data to flash after seq 0 (result was C100: Unknown result)
I tried to change the baud rate, but it didn't help. Any suggestions or hints? Maybe I bricked the board?
