Using FTDI Debug to replace serial port

Hi, I broke my serial port by accident, can I use the FTDI Debug section instead? can I use that for firmware flashing and communication with the laptop?
Thank you!

Hi,
It should be possible: the bootloader works with this uart and can be used with the program "stm32flash" for example (it is available in Ubuntu).
There is a flag at the beginning of the Makefile to enable all prints to the FTDI cable, we where using that before getting the USB serial to work.
