+ | ====== How to Update or Recover Linux Mode on the Analog Discovery Pro (ADP3450/ | ||
+ | ~~TechArticle~~ | ||
+ | ===== Overview ===== | ||
+ | This guide walks through the process of updating or recovering the Analog Discovery Pro's Linux image, which is used when the device is run in Linux Mode. | ||
+ | Updating your image ensures that you have access to the latest preinstalled packages, drivers, and software that Digilent ships within the image. | ||
+ | You might need to recover the image in the event that something goes awry in Linux Mode. | ||
+ | Be aware that this process overwrites the current Linux image and that customizations you may have made will be lost - back up your work! | ||
+ | **Note:** //This process does not update the Standard mode firmware and does not affect the device calibration. Check out [[firmware-update|How to Update Standard Mode Firmware]].// | ||

+ | You can check to see if your device already has the latest Linux image after booting into Linux. Run the following command in the serial terminal and compare it to the latest version listed in the Inventory section. < | ||
+ | If your version is out of date, Digilent recommends updating it before doing anything else in Linux Mode, as the process of updating the image will erase work you might have saved in previous sessions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you are not on the latest version, or simply want to refresh to a known state, extract the files from the Linux image ZIP download, linked in the Inventory section, above. | ||
