How to install Bus pirate 3.6

Hi all,
I'm ordered buspirate 3.6 and it just arrived yesterday.
Therefore, my question is which OS is the best and stable for buspirate. Also, how to install it as no article straight to this point. I have seen thaGH05T said window is fine but Linux is more better. How about OSX?

However, please provide me instructions how to install bus pirate in proper way.

Thanks in advance

im follow this topic
www.ghostlyhaks.com/blog/blog/hacking/18-apple-efi-bypass (How To Bypass Apple EFI Firmware Lock)

but got error on this command
root@kali:~/flashrom# sudo flashrom –r ~/efi/read1.bin -V -p linux_spi:dev=/dev/spidev0.0
flashrom v0.9.8-r1896 on Linux 4.0.0-kali1-amd64 (x86_64)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at www.flashrom.org

Error: Extra parameter found.
Please run "flashrom --help" for usage info.

thanks

Hmm... you are typing sudo while you are root user already?
After you connect Bus Pirate into USB a serial port should be created in /dev. Check /dev for new tty-devices... Well, let it be '/dev/ttyACM0' for example.
Now you need to say to 'flashrom' what kind of SPI programmer you are using, like this: '-p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyACM0'
And, finally your command will 'flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyACM0 -r <some_file_name>' But for tests you may just use: 'flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyACM0' i.e. without operation specified. flashrom will look for programmer and will try to find a chip.

Use 'flashrom -h' output, and 'man flashrom' This tool very good documented.

All right, please let me know if i get wrong

i tried this
root@kali:~# lsusb | tail

[ 76.758275] usb 2-2.2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0

assuming that my buspirate is ttyUSB0

Therefore,

flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyUSB0 -r <givenfilename> //for read
flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyUSB0 -E //for erase
flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyUSB0 -w <newdumpfile> //for write
flashrom -p buspirate_spi:dev=/dev/ttyUSB0 -v <newfilename> //for verify chip content vs file

Am i missing something? Im just want to make sure that nothing wrong with it. I have seen many people have a troubles due to mistaken or lack of knowledge in flashrom and SPI program including me aswell.

Thanks thaGH0ST and token.paul
