Hello,
Trying to get Sphinx to work on a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 but getting the following error:

This also happens if I use the line from the setup guide

sphinx "/opt/parrot-sphinx/usr/share/sphinx/drones/anafi_ai.drone"::firmware="https://firmware.parrot.com/Versions/anafi2/pc/%23latest/images/anafi2-pc.ext2.zip"

Edit:
A bit more context if it matters:
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3070ti, Driver: [525.60.11]
CPU: Intel 9900K

Hello,

tar.gz archives are not supported by Sphinx. You should either use the original zip file or an uncompressed ext2 file.

If the line from the setup guide does not work, you should download the zip file:

https://firmware.parrot.com/Versions/anafi2/pc/%23latest/images/anafi2-pc.ext2.zip

or

https://firmware.parrot.com/Versions/anafi/pc/%23latest/images/anafi-pc.ext2.zip

and set the path in the command line:

sphinx /opt/parrot-sphinx/usr/share/sphinx/drones/anafi_ai.drone::firmware=/path/to/anafi2.ext2.zip

or

sphinx /opt/parrot-sphinx/usr/share/sphinx/drones/anafi4k.drone::firmware=/path/to/anafi-pc.ext2.zip

Yup, that did the trick. It was misleading that the firmware was uploaded in that format at Firmware Versions & SDK - Parrot

I can continue with the docs now, but one quick question. I’m using the drone as a wifi dongle but it doesn’t seem to be passing an actual internet connection to the iPad. Is that possible?

Edit: Figured that out as well, needed to use virtual ethernet
