System Software for the Linux Operating System

(

Express Builder

discusses the following topics:

•

‘‘General Upgrade Considerations

”

•

‘‘Upgrading or Restoring the Linux Operating System”

•

Express Builder

”

•

‘‘

Creating a Backup System Disk

”

N O T E S

1. If you want to update or reinstall an individual

software package that is provided in a Red Hat
Package Manager (RPM) file, use the

rpm

command

(see

rpm

(8)).

2. The Linux operating system upgrade script has been

tested only with firmware, hardware, and devices
meeting design specifications of the

Express5800/

ftServer

system and its system options. See the

Release Notes: Express5800/

ftServer

for the Linux

Operating System

for issues that may relate to the

upgrade process.

3. If you need to perform a complete reinstallation rather

than a release-level upgrade or restoration, see

Chapter 2

for preparation and for the procedure.
