daven2411 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 How can I upgrade the firmware from 3.0 to 3.1 when the reason for needing to upgrade is that the Packet Squirrel will not recognise NTFS formatted USB drives??? Catch 22 situation unless there is a way of manually doing the upgrade, bypassing the need to copy the .bin file to USB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just follow the manual upgrade for Pineapple. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap_Sig Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Or ext4? https://docs.hak5.org/hc/en-us/articles/360010553913-USB-Flash-Disk-Support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uintdev Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) From my experience, not even formatting it to ext4 worked. As others had suggested, going in via SSH and using the 'reformat_usb' command did the trick. Although that resulted in me having to copy the upgrade file over as root to the flash drive on a standalone PC using a GNU/Linux distro (Virtualbox was being a little buggy with mounting the drive to begin with). Or just use the manual upgrade method for the WiFi Pineapple as suggested above. Less effort. Edited August 23, 2019 by uintdev 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToxicAtomicDog Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 The WiFi Pineapple method is the only way I could get my Packet Squirrel to upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
