@ -30,6 +30,6 @@ If you're upgrading your NRF52 device from a previous version of Meshtastic rath
Meshtastic uses the [littlefs](https://github.com/littlefs-project/littlefs) library to store configuration, logs, and other data in the internal flash of NRF52 devices. Updating the firmware does _not_ erase this additional data, which can cause issues when the format and location of data changes between releases.
To reset the flash storage on your NRF52 board, first follow steps 1-4 above. At step 5, copy the file named `Meshtastic_nRF52_factory_erase.uf2` onto the virtual disk device instead of a `firmware-DEVICE_NAME...` binary. After the device resets, connect to it via serial console using the [Meshtastic CLI `--noproto`](/docs/software/python/cli/#--noproto) mode or a standalone serial client like `minicom`. When you connect to the serial console, press any key; you should see the message `Formating ... Done`.

Once the flash is erased you can use steps 2-5 above to re-install the latest Meshtastic firmware on a clean storage filesystem.
