+### Flashing the Board Using OpenOCD
 
 Please use an OpenOCD version checked out after Jan. 26th 2015. Building
 instructions can be found [here](https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/wiki/OpenOCD).
 
+### Flashing the Board Using ST-LINK Removable Media
+
+On-board ST-LINK programmer provides via composite USB device removable media.
+Copying the HEX file causes reprogramming of the board. This task
+could be performed manually; however, the cpy2remed (copy to removable
+media) PROGRAMMER script does this automatically. To program board in
+this manner, use the command:
+```
+make BOARD=nucleo-l152re PROGRAMMER=cpy2remed flash
+```
+@note This PROGRAMMER was tested using ST-LINK firmware 2.37.26. Firmware updates
+could be found on [this STM webpage](https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-link007.html).

 ## Using UART
 
 Using the UART isn't too stable right now. For some using the USB interface
