[chirp_users] USB LiveBoot ?
Just looked at the LiveCD image file for Chirp and woah!, that seems MUCH larger than it needs to be... (600+Mb)
I'm interested in setting up a bootable USB stick with an autorun Chirp session for programming my Baofeng UV-82HP.
I'm getting the 'Unsupported firmware version: "N82-33 US2S35 /Uffffffff/Uffffffff" with Chirp v0.4.0
The hardware is an ACER AspireOne NetBook (AMD64).
It would seem that this project SHOULD fit on a 1-Gb USB Stick with plenty of room to spare to store radio programming data.
Anyone have an ISO for this...
I'm getting Puppy Linux and DSLinux Live boot ISO's right now in case I have to use an IMG burn file of Chirp. PuppyLinux ISO is only 225Mb, and I think DamnSmallLinux is even smaller.
And on a second note... Is anyone working on an Android App port of Chirp ? Sure would be nice to prgm the radios with a SmartPhone or Tablet... Of course, that would require a cable with a MicroUSB connector.

Wow, you really don't tell us much about your real problem. But it does appear that your first order of business would be to get the latest version of Chirp, instead of a version that is years old.
The Chinese radios are a constantly moving target, so without a current version of Chirp, there is no chance of making programming your radio possible.

This is most likely due to using an old version of chirp with a newer firmware version radio.

This is not relevant. But operating system and version might be.

I don't have any experience with these Linux variations, so can't help you there.

Not likely to happen.

Yup... I guess I left out the most important fact responsible for the error message, which is the OS on the NetBook is Debian Squeeze v6, to which doing a major update to is not an option. Have tried installing the latest version of Chirp under that, but there are just too many errors in compile making that not feasible. And since there is no .Deb distribution package available, compiling source is the only option.
That was my main reason for becoming interested in a LiveBoot application on a USB stick, to bypass all that hassle.
I have managed to create the Ubuntu based TharPuppy stick to boot from, so now perhaps I'll be able to install the latest version of Chirp for Ubuntu. And the problem would be solved...
I was thinking that if someone here had built a RAM boot/run image specifically for (with) Chirp, it might save me some time. Shame on me for wanting to save time, and not duplicate efforts done by another already...
I'll just schlog along on my own and see how things turn out.

That is because you have no python-argparse package installed. Which does not appear to be available in your version of Debian. You *might* be able to get more up-to-date python with backports, but that may be difficult. Not sure.
Which probably does get you back to a usb stick. Which very lean distributions will work, I am not sure.

Thanks Paul, Squeeze has served me well for MANY years, but I'm not quite ready for the process of backing up the system, nuking the HD, and installing a new OS. At this point I've missed so many updates, and so low on space, trying to bump it up to the latest Deb would be like herding kittens.
Think I'm going to explore the USB Stick into RAM. Found a couple 64Gb sticks. TahrPuppy installed nicely on one of them, going to see if Chirp might run under that, if not may try a closer full size cousin to Ubuntu on the other.

python-serial v2.3-1 installed python-libxml2 v2.7.8.dfsg-2+squeeze8 installed
I'm considering looking for a version of Ubuntu, or other distro that will fit on a 64Gb USB stick, and run from RAM on the AspireONE. Any input on which OS, if other than Ubuntu, works best with Chirp ? Have the latest ver of TahrPuppy (PuppyLinux) on a stick now, and it boots nicely, but have no idea if it will run Chirp(w).

I'm considering looking for a version of Ubuntu, or other distro that will fit on a 64Gb USB stick, and run from RAM on the AspireONE. Any input on which OS, if other than Ubuntu, works best with Chirp ? Have the latest ver of TahrPuppy (PuppyLinux) on a stick now, and it boots nicely, but have no idea if it will run Chirp(w).

This works fine.
At this point, there should be two ways. One is to follow instructions on the download page for ubuntu users -- http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Download. The other is to unpack what you downloaded, then from the directory to which unpacked, run ./chirpw
Looks like the maintainer of the live package needs to update!

That was my main reason for becoming interes ted in a LiveBoot application on a USB stick, to bypass all that hassle.
I have managed to create the Ubuntu based TharPuppy stick to boot from, so now perhaps I'll be able to install the latest version of Chirp for Ubuntu. And the problem would be solved...
I was thinking that if someone here had built a RAM boot/run image specifically for (with) Chirp, it might save me some time. Shame on me for wanting to save time, and not duplicate efforts done by another already...
I'll just schlog along on my own and see how things turn out.

Dang Al... Some of those I was actually trying to forget... ;) About the only one you mentioned that I didn't learn to program in was RPG, but your 'Ugh!' gives me hope that it might be good for my sanity that I missed that one... lol

And I lost ALL those reference/coding books in the fire... :'( (all my radios, computers, tools too - very sad about that) (even my first CoCo and Silver RS Model-1 Level-2) (the Drakes, Hammarlunds, Moto's, TMC's, Swans, Cleggs, and MSR's) Just getting back into the hobby with these Baofengs. Have my eye on the Baofeng 5001 for the BlackRAM.
Does anyone know how to convert Hex' to Binary any more ? Hi Hi on the years. The PDP-11 in the early 80's and the IBM-360 in the mid 70's.
I saw mention of papertape and punchcards in another post. I can hardly wait to read that one, and FSM it. (FSM = Fold, Spindle, Mutilate) Did punchtape in military as RTTY Op on Angry26Delta. ROTFLMFAO Thanks!

I'll just schlog along on my own and see how things turn out. _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com <mailto:chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com> http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to Bob Nielsen at n7xy@n7xy.net <mailto:n7xy@n7xy.net> To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe@intrepid.danplanet.com <mailto:chirp_users-unsubscribe@intrepid.danplanet.com>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to kb6lwn@gmail.com at kb6lwn@gmail.com To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe@intrepid.danplanet.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to kb6lwn@gmail.com at kb6lwn@gmail.com To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe@intrepid.danplanet.com

Dang Al... Some of those I was actually trying to forget... ;) About the only one you mentioned that I didn't learn to program in was RPG, but your 'Ugh!' gives me hope that it might be good for my sanity that I missed that one... lol
Hmm.. Basic, GW-Basic, MS-Basic, and how many others ??? C, C+, C++, and I seem to remember more nightmarish variants. And I lost ALL those reference/coding books in the fire... :'( (all my radios, computers, tools too - very sad about that) (even my first CoCo32k and Silver RS Model-1 Level-2 (4k iirc)) (the Drakes, Hammarlunds, Moto's, TMC's, Swans, Cleggs, and MSR's) Just getting back into the hobby with these Baofengs. Have my eye on the Baofeng 5001 for the BlackRAM.
Does anyone know how to convert Hex' to Binary any more ? Hi Hi on the years. The PDP-11 in the early 80's and the IBM-360 in the mid 70's.
I saw mention of papertape and punchcards in another post. I can hardly wait to read that one, and FSM it. (FSM = Fold, Spindle, Mutilate) Did punchtape in military as RTTY Op on Angry26Delta. ROTFLMFAO Thanks!
And YES! I'm getting to be an ol' fart.

Laughing at you Bruce., from your list of programming languages, that should date you date about my 70ish (or so).
My list looks like: ASM, APL, BASIC (of way too many varieties to count), C, COBOL, FORTRAN, RPG (ugh!), and I'm sure others ... sure would be nice is things were as simple as they were in the old day .... << smile >>

I can't believe this seems like so much of a process. I've set up Cat-5 Ether and wireless networks from Slack v3.2 on up to v7, written and compiled source on various distros, without major problems. Coded in ASM, Fortran, Pascal, CoBOL, BASIC, and others. Can't understand why this isn't flowing better...
But at this point I'm not assuming ANYthing... I'm going to ASK, even is sounds like a silly question. After the download, what is the next step ?

Downloaded: chirp-0.4.1.tar.gz Got v0.4.1 to run. Tried to overlay the daily (0802) and re-run, but got the same errors as before.
UV-82HP is in the truck, will bring it in and try to reprogram it tomorrow.

Chirp does not need compiling, just download tarball and unpack. Enter the directory where unpacked and run ./chirpw

Yup... I guess I left out the most important fact responsible for the error message, which is the OS on the NetBook is Debian Squeeze v6, to which doing a major update to is not an option. Have tried installing the latest version of Chirp under that, but there are just too many errors in compile making that not feasible. And since there is no .Deb distribution package available, compiling source is the only option.
That was my main reason for becoming interes ted in a LiveBoot application on a USB stick, to bypass all that hassle.
I have managed to create the Ubuntu based TharPuppy stick to boot from, so now perhaps I'll be able to install the latest version of Chirp for Ubuntu. And the problem would be solved...

v0.4.0 and v0.4.1 are ancient. Over 3 years old. You must not use the repo that comes in Ubuntu. You must uninstall that CHIRP. Add the snapshot repo on the CHIRP website as shown on the download page. Then get the latest daily build installed (those are the "official" builds now).

You should stick with Slack, just download the Slackbuild and let it do everything for you https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/ham/chirp/?search=chirp
When a new nightly comes out its simple to just edit the version in the Slackbuild and run it again then upgradepkg the result. Even though you don't need to build Chirp the Slackbuild copies everything and adds to the path for you.
