Saving directly to mbed vs copy file

Hi!

I'm pretty new to mbed (but not embedded) and I am using an mbed lpc11u24 board. First thing I noticed was that when I compiled my .bin from the web compiler using Chrome on Linux (Debian) and saved it to the board it didn't work. It did however work on Windows (10).

As it turns out, on my Linux system, the mbed only runs the program if I download the .bin file to my computer and then copy the file from my computer onto the mbed. If I save it directly onto the mbed from my web browser it will not work (yes I am pressing reset and have replugged multiple times). I can't really think of any explanation for this.

Using windows I can save the .bin directly onto the mbed from my web browser and it works.

Has anyone else experienced this?
