Upgrade Instructions for people already running parkrunPortable - lawrencebillson/parkrun GitHub Wiki

I'm currently running version 1.4 or later

There is a web based "upgrade from usb" option. To use it:

  • Download this parkrunupgrade.bin file into the root folder of a USB stick (Must be formatted FAT32, the file must be in the root folder and named parkrunupgrade.bin)
  • Power on your parkrunPortable and insert your USB stick (in the parkrunPortable)
  • Click on the "upgrade from usb" option on the web interface
  • After about 3 minutes, your parkrunPortable should be running whatever firmware you put in the parkrunupgrade.bin file

I'm currently running version 1.3 or earlier

There is no web based upgrade for these devices. To manually upgrade:

scp openwrt-15.05.1-ramips-mt7620-mlwg2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [email protected]:/tmp

  • Login to your parkrunPortable with SSH

ssh [email protected]

  • Execute sysupgrade

sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-15.05.1-ramips-mt7620-mlwg2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

  • The upgrade will take about 5 minutes - you'll see the blue light flash for a bit, and Bob's your uncle!
