[Hackrf-dev] firmware update

[Rich S]

It is saying your computer, not your hackrf, doesn't have enough free 
space to download the new packages.  You'll have to setup a larger 
persistent portion on your usb drive.

Here's an explanation of the steps and what they do.

This part downloads the update to your computer, then it compiles the 
update - nothing is transferred to your hackrf yet:

open a terminal (ctrl+alt+t)
*type *git clone https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf.git
*type *cd hackrf/host/libhackrf/
*type *mkdir build
*type *cd build
*type *cmake ..
*type *make
*type *sudo make install
*type *sudo ldconfig
copy /home/hackrf/host/libhackrf/53-hackrf.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d
*type *sudo udevadm control —reload-rules
reboot

This part updates the firmware of your hackrf:

open a terminal (ctrl+alt+t)
*type* cd hackrf-2014.08.1/firmware-bin/
*type *sudo hackrf_spiflash -w hackrf_one_usb_rom_to_ram.bin
reset your hack rf

This part updates the clpd of your hackrf:

*type* cd firmware/cpld
*type *hackrf_cpldjtag -x default.xsvf
reset your hack rf
*type *hackrf_info
