I am upgrading one of my Adalm Pluto's from one Alpha version to another (2312)
but there is insufficient room to copy the pluto.frm file.

Anything I can safely delete or should I downgrade to a previous version first?

I had the same problem. However the firmware now has a facility to update from the web interface. Doing it that way seems to get around the lack of space issue.

Answered my own question

Downgraded to plutosdr-fw-v0.31 then there was room

Thanks for the reply Colin, I will try that for future upgrades.

Morning,

I remember a similar discussion at the AMSAT-DL forum.
You can delete the LICENSE.html safely.

Edit: I updated mine from 2711+UII2.4 to 2312 by deleting the UII2.4 overlay and uploading the 2312 pluto.frm trough http://192.168.2.1 -> "Controller" -> "Update a new firmware or new path" without any storage trouble...

I spoke to Evariste about this last week. Updating via the web interface still works, but the firmware has become a little too large. You can delete files like license.html in the RAM drive safely to make space.

Thanks for everyone's replies.
