What i did was i ran 1) "Ubuntu" through "Windows" command prompt 2) Then I downloaded and extracted the most recent release of mayhem firmware into a folder 3) Connect the portpack and put it into HackRF mode 4) Open a terminal in the folder with the mayhem update "portapack-h1_h2-mayhem" by "cd" through the directory to the folder or opening it using the directory search bar "clicking" it to hightlight the folder location then typing in "cmd" 5) Execute comman "hackrf_spiflash -w portapack-h1_h2-mayhem.bin" 6) Once complete, disconnect and reboot your device with the PortaPack H2 board mounted Note that you may have to press the LEFT or UP button on the PortaPack to activate the LED screen drivers for your first bootup depending on the board variant. Through trial and error using Windows batch and Kali Linux which neither worked, running "Ubuntu" through "Windows" command prompt worked perfectly Though i know thats not how it is suppose to work having to jump through and in between hoops (All Socials are AK Prowl) direct.me/akprowl IMG_5318

All you need to do is download the firmware zip and run flash-portapack-mayhem.bat after you have entered Hackrf mode on your PortaPack. No need to use Ubuntu WSL.

Just make sure you install the provided drivers.
