Dennis,

Make sure you are logging in over SSH to get to the command line of your Pi-Star, from there running

Code: Select all

sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash
Should give you some output that tells you what to do.

Sorry for hijacking your post,

Just updated my mmdvm hs dual hat and now it not working at all. Unable to read firmware version after 6 attempts

Used sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_dual_hat

Its the dual hat from DF2ET DB9MAT
Kinda stuck now :shock:


Edit *rolled back to previous firmware and all working ok
