In MFDeploy, there is an option to create a HEX file (application deployment) from your managed code. You can then flash items #2-#4 using MFDeploy or a custom application built on top of the MFDeployEngine library.
Hi Chris,
I'm getting ready to deploy a large number of Netduino Pluses, but I am having trouble finding this option in MfDeploy. Can you please elaborate on the steps required to create a HEX file from managed code?
Thanks,
Ryan

This is what I just discovered by trial and error.
Compile your program in Visual Studio and deploy to the N+. Now launch MFDeploy. Make sure your N+ is connected and the settings in MFDeploy are correct (in my case, Device is USB and NetduinoPlus_NetduinoPlus). Now the unobvious part (at least for me). Click Target->Create Application Deployment. Under "Deployment File" fill in the path and name for the .hex file you want created from the application that is currently on the N+. Create a key or not depending on your needs. Click OK and off you go- the .hex file will be created. Personally I would have expected to create an App Deployment from the output of the compiler, not from what's on the board, but it seems to have worked for me.
