Rob-

Yes I am wondering if not all SD cards are created equal. I tried a different 
brand (PNY is the one that failed and I switched to SanDisk) and that worked. I 
also used the bmap tool this time which was much better in terms of feedback 
and speed. The test would be to go back and try Bmap with the PNY card. Maybe 
when I have time.

Thanks
Jeff

Subject: [EXT] Re: [USRP-users] Failed to update E320 to UHD 4.0

Hi Jeff,
I don't have an E320, but I did not experience any space issue using 16GB cards 
with either N310 or N321. BTW, I used bmaptool for the writing which is super 
fast compared to the other methods.

I have a E320 that I wanted to update to UHD 4.0. I am currently at 3.15. I 
downloaded the mender artifact and image from

I first tried to mend it. I scp’d it and attempted it. The following is the 
result from that.

During this process, during the scp I noticed that it complained about the disk 
being full. I am using a 16 GB sd card (actually the one that came with it) and 
there is nothing extra on it other than the standard UHD 3.15 etc. Thinking 
that might be an issue I decided to try popping the cover and building a new 16 
GB card from scratch using the image I downloaded.

After doing:

 sudo dd if=usrp_e320_fs.sdimg of=/dev/sda bs=1M

When I tried to boot this popped up so that is probably no good based on it 
running out of space:
[FAILED] Failed to start File System Check on /dev/mmcblk0p4.
Then it went into emergency mode.

Does UHD 4.0 require a bigger disk?

Thanks
