Thanks for the response…

I just called Best Buy and they confused me. They stated you cannot write 
‘files’ to USB SD micro card reader…

I am assuming doing the image is not the same as writing ‘files’…. it is a form 
of reformatting, so it can be done.

I will go buy one now….

Till my next e-mail.

Again, I am a little perturbed that I have to go through this.  But, it has 
been a learning activity, and allowed me to learn Linux, but in a more 
frustrating fahion.

Thanks,

Konstantin

Hello,
Yes, a micro SD card adapter is needed. I'm going to add to our documentation 
to highlight that point. There is no way to overwrite the entire SD remotely. 
This is true for nearly every embedded system.
We do not have any recommended micro SD card adapter. There are many from good 
brands such as Kingston, Anker, and Transcend on Amazon. I have yet to 
encounter an adapter which will not work, including the $2 Kingston one. I use 
a USB3 one which supports many different card formats.
Regards,
Derek

Again… This was not explained clearly….

Are you stating I need a micro SD Card adapter/burner to do this?

I thought I just leave it hooked up to the E310 with the SD card in it and this 
can be done?

Please clarify… And if I do need a burner, which one do you suggest I buy…

Thanks….

Hi Konstantin,
We have no way of knowing what device the SD Card will enumerate as. There are 
many guides online for using utilities like fdisk and dmesg to find the name of 
the device.
Using Windows or Linux you will need to remove the micro SD card and use a USB 
to micro SD card adapter to mount the disk on your host computer.
I'm sorry you are having such difficulty with the E310. There is a fair amount 
of Linux knowledge which is assumed by the manuals and which is necessary to 
use the E310 effectively. We can continue helping as possible, but it will be 
faster and hopefully somewhat less frustrating to make use of the many Linux 
guides available.
Here is one from SparkFun which covers Windows and Linux.

Nate,

I was unsuccessful with the Windows approach mainly that the file downloaded is 
a tar....

When trying to use the Win32Image software, it did not find the drive to 
connect when I had the E310 hooked up via ethernet...  Even though I was able 
to ping to it through the NIC card.

So, I came up with the option to create a shared drive between my Windows and 
Linux VM OS.  This took a little work to figure out, but now, I was able to 
move the unzipped tar file (done by Win7) to the VM Linux OS.

Now, I can use the commands using this link...  My question is what should I 
use for

http://files.ettus.com/manual/page_usrp_e3x0.html#e3x0_upgrade_sd_card

<yoursdcard> ?  is it /dev/sdb ?

Thanks....

Nate,

Thanks for the instructions...

I am trying to download the tz file from the website using the VM Linux OS.  My 
browser locks up.

I also did download the tx file in Windos, but I am unable to connect with the 
E310 via Ethernet over my Ethernet connection.

Since the installation instructions commands are in Linux, would you please 
assist me as to why I cannot download the file via the VM?

Thanks

Konstantin

Hi Konstantin,
In regards to the page not showing instructions, please copy and paste the full 
links listed below. If you note within the screenshot you posted, you have the 
URL of:

"https://kb.ettus.com/Ettus_USRP_E300_Embedded_Family_Hardware_Resource";

The full address is:

"https://kb.ettus.com/Ettus_USRP_E300_Embedded_Family_Hardware_Resources#SD_Card_Images";

In regards to the permission denied prompt that is being given in your terminal 
screenshot -- This is because the command that you are issuing 
"/etc/network/interfaces" is not valid. When you issue a command that is the 
path to a file such as that, the system is attempting to pass the file and 
execute it via the default shell (/bin/sh). I suspect you're attempting to edit 
the file, which can be done with the utility "vi", such as "vi 
/etc/network/interfaces".

I would suggest starting with a fresh "release-4" image for the E310 at this 
point.

You will need to download the .xz file of the release image for the speed grade 
of your device (details are in the link below for which SG you need based on 
the serial number), and then decompress it with a 7z (7zip) or other similar 
tool. You will then need to burn the image to the SD card, which can be done 
with WinDisk32Imager or the Linux utility "dd", or "bmaptool".

The default setting for the "release-4" image will give the E310 a static IP 
address of 192.168.10.2. If you then put your VM NIC Settings into a Bridged 
Mode, and set a static IP Address within the VM to "192.168.1.3", you should be 
able to connect to the E310 with the root account and no password via SSH.
