I didn't get one either! Oh, and, my PS arrived :) @Sebkinne When's the docs going to be updated for 1.1? Still no info on CLONE or anything.

AHammer Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 FYI this worked with a minor clarification. I had to create the NTFS volume in Linux (I used Gparted in Kali/Debian). Using an NTFS volume created in Windows 10 did not work, the SQUIRREL wouldn't recognize it. Once created in Linux, it worked like a dream.

Didier Stevens Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I updated with a USB stick formatted for NTFS on Windows 10. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-ee Jones Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Windows NTFS format worked fine for me, but I would recommend using the 'reformat_usb' command on the Packet Squirrel. Can't remember the exact command, so might be best to get the list (double tap 'Tab') and look for it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didier Stevens Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The command is reformat_usb. Remark that this will format the USB stick with the EXT4 filesystem: Quote function format_disk() { echo -e "o\nn\np\n1\n\np\n\nw\n" | fdisk $1 echo y | mkfs.ext4 ${1}1 } Hence not natively readable on Windows 10.

Correct, but at least it's readable to the PS :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 We just released firmware v1.2 for the Packet Squirrel. I have updated the original post with more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0N3z Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 @Sebkinne when using the "reformat_usb" command it creates folders (i.e. switch 1, switch 2). Will it make a difference that the on PS a switch folder is "switch1" vs the usb which is "switch 1". Will the space make a difference when the PS reads it? Also when using "reformat_usb" after it completes and I plug it into my pc, I have to use a root file manager to edit anything on the drive. Im using Ubunut 17.10.

Yes, that's weird - the script doesn't create any folders iirc. I'll double check, but that's odd. On the USB drive, you should have a payloads folder, and inside that a switch1, switch2, and switch3 folder. Quote Also when using "reformat_usb" after it completes and I plug it into my pc, I have to use a root file manager to edit anything on the drive. Im using Ubunut 17.10. The files on it are owned by root. Your OS sees this and requires you to have the same access. This isn't specific to the packet squirrel though.

I had created those and then done the reformat_usb command but they did not go away. I reformatted with my pc to EXT4 and had no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismusty Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Considering the instructions say to copy the firmware to a USB, I am assuming that means we cannot update firmware remotely over ethernet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You absolutely can - just upload the upgrade binary to your /tmp and execute "sysupgrade - not /tmp/upgrade.bin" over ssh. As an upgrade wipes out all your configuration though (on device, not USB), you run the risk of it not reconnecting back to you. Properly settings up usb payloads would solve this though.

chrismusty Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Hey thanks for replying and Merry Christmas. So in the use case where we rely on this to gain access to a device inside a remote network (through openvpn) is it possible can we upgrade the device and keep open vpn settings so it will establish the connection again after upgrade?
