Flashing (Firmware)
|
|
===================
|
|
This page is for existing Librem Mini owners ONLY. This will add StartOS-specific tweaks to your system, such that it will operate just as a Start9 Pure bought from the `Start9 Store <https://store.start9.com/collections/servers/products/server-pure>`_.
|
|
|
|
The source code can be viewed on Purism's `firmware git repo <https://source.puri.sm/firmware/releases/-/tree/master/librem_mini_v2/custom>`_.
|
|
|
|
#. `Download the firmware from Purism's git repository <https://source.puri.sm/firmware/releases/-/raw/master/librem_mini_v2/custom/pureboot-librem_mini_v2-basic_usb_autoboot_blob_jail-Release-27.1.rom.gz>`_ and extract it. You'll need a USB flash drive, formatted FAT32.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: USB drive **must** be formatted as FAT32
|
|
|
|
#. Copy or move the resulting ``pureboot-librem_mini_v2-basic_usb_autoboot_blob_jail-Release-27.1.rom`` file onto your USB drive, then eject the drive and insert it into your (powered down) Librem Mini. USB 3.0 (blue ports) are faster.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: You'll need a monitor and keyboard plugged into your Librem Mini for this operation
|
|
|
|
#. Turn on the Librem Mini while pressing the ``ESC`` key on the keyboard repeatedly while you see this screen:
