Chapter 6
P.29
Warning :
During this upgrading process, we should not disconnect the power or the Ethernet cable, since it
may cause upgrade failure and destroy the image in Flash memory. In this case, we have to upgrade
through bootloader process, which is not as friendly as the web method.
Note :
There are three possible images can be upgraded. But not all of the three images should be upgraded
in each release. Most often, only need to upgrade the ramdisk image. The three images are:
■
extpar
■
zimage
■
ramdisk
