Starting Up The Proxmark

Hello,

I am a new user to the Proxmark, and I was wondering if I could get some help with it.

So I read a bunch of flash-related problems that many people are having, and I do have one of my own, but I guess my concern right now is to try and get this Proxmark3 up and running successfully.

I have in my red bag a Proxmark3 (unknown of its age), a USB cable, a green disc LF antenna and a red wrapped inductance coil (both have a mini USB connector), and a bunch of RFID tags/cards/chips. I also downloaded "pm3-20090905-r216", a new version of the Proxmark3 software, and I am running a Windows XP machine that successfully detects the Proxmark3 when I run "prox.exe", the GUI that states, "connected to device".

Here's the deal: I need some reassurance that I'm heading in the right direction to being able to read both LF and HF RFIDs. The first order of business is knowing that I successfully compiled the code in the zip file.

In the Proxmark3 Project Hosting site -> Compiling, it states that if I find the fpga, os, and bootrom images and the prox GUI executable, then the code was successfully compiled. However, when I go to run the "5makeall" command on the console (after clicking on "0setpath.bat"), I receive two noticeable errors. I am wondering if this has anything to do with the problems I am experiencing:

Despite these errors, I still find the image files and the executable in their respective directories. Is everything okay here?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Re: Starting Up The Proxmark

obj/start.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized

This should definitely not happen. The .s19 files that you find in your directories are probably the shipped files that are in there for a quick first start. If you want to make sure you have your self-compiled binaries, you need to clean the directory first. For this, after clicking 0setpath.bat, do (in the shell opened by 0setpath.bat):

cd ..\winsrc
make clean
cd ..\armsrc
make clean
cd ..\bootrom
make clean
cd ..\cockpit
5makeall.bat

(This applies to the cockpit batch files shipped in r216. The newer 5makeall.bat from r222 would allow you to do "5makeall.bat clean" instead of the first 7 commands.)

Re: Starting Up The Proxmark

Latest SVN version supports "5makeall clean" which cleans everything.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the reply.

Here is what I did in the console (you don't have to look at eveything, just the highlighted portions):

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried executing "make clean" in the winsrc directory and it came back with:

  "makefile:22: *** missing separator. Stop."

Also, below I highlighted a file that was not found when cleaning up the bootrom directory. Is this okay?

Finally, the output has dramatically changed after making everything again (and after cleaning), this time without any errors. Am I good to go now?

Thanks!
