I've not used the STM family, but IAR Workbench is really great. I use it for other devices. The size limited version is really generous.

Arrgh. This isn't going well at all - it seems that the IAR software is too big to fit on my virtual machine. I guess 10 GB for a VM drive just isn't enough anymore.

This is quite a setback, as it means that either I need to set up a new VM from scratch (the one I was using was a clone of a clean XP install I already had), or I need to go find myself a Windows machine (I do have one sitting in the closet)...

For this weekend, sadly I'm out of time...

ps, the documentation doesn't seem to mention this anywhere, but you need to install the ST-Link driver (IAR install has a menu item named "install drivers") - this is needed to connect to the board.

I probably should have looked at this earlier, but according to the docs the add-on base board samples are only supported for Keil and IAR.
