Replacing idle FPGA image on an E310

I've successfully replaced the non-idle FPGA image on my UHD 4.0 E310
using uhd_image_loader.

What's the process to replace the idle FPGA image?  I didn't see any
documentation on using uhd_image_loader for that.

I saw FPGA images in /user/share/uhd/images and /lib/firmware, but wasn't
sure if I could just copy on top of those?

Thanks.

Yes, you can copy on top of those. /lib/firmware is the one that'll get
applied, the next time an idle image is loaded.

Thanks.  I'll give that a try.
