3 | There are several way to flash partitions (e.g. updating) manually: |
||
4 | * using @/usr/sbin/ubiupdatevol@: |
||
5 | <pre> |
||
6 | ubiupdatevol version 1.2 - a tool to write data to UBI volumes. |
||
7 | |||
8 | Usage: ubiupdatevol <UBI volume node file name> [-t] [-s <size>] [-h] [-V] [--truncate] |
||
9 | [--size=<size>] [--help] [--version] <image file> |
||
10 | |||
11 | Example 1: ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 fs.img - write file "fs.img" to UBI volume /dev/ubi0_1 |
||
12 | Example 2: ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 -t - wipe out UBI volume /dev/ubi0_1 |
||
13 | |||
14 | -t, --truncate truncate volume (wipe it out) |
||
15 | -s, --size=<bytes> bytes in input, if not reading from file |
||
16 | -h, --help print help message |
||
17 | -V, --version print program version |
||
18 | </pre> |
||
19 | * using @/APP/dev_only/swupd.sh@ |
||
20 | <pre> |
||
21 | swupd.sh - update flash partitions on the target |
||
22 | |||
23 | Easy mode: |
||
24 | using NFS: swupd.sh -i<IP> -p<PATH> |
||
25 | where: |
||
26 | <IP> = IP address of your VM (defaults to 192.168.16.18) |
||
27 | <PATH> = path of NFS directory (defaults to /home/femto/ftpdata) |
||
28 | |||
29 | using wget: swupd.sh -w<URL> |
||
30 | where: |
||
31 | <URL> = URL to fetch images from (e.g. ftp://user:pass@host/path) |
||
32 | |||
33 | Expert mode: (stay away from them!) |
||
34 | -k update kernel |
||
35 | -r update root fs |
||
36 | -a update application partition |
||
37 | -u update unitdata partition |
||
38 | -c update caldata partition |
||
39 | -x toggle banks |
||
40 | -z don't reboot after successful update |
||
41 | |||
42 | -o<str> Pass option string <str> to wget |
||
43 | </pre> |
||
44 | |||
45 | @/etc/init.d/flash_update@ takes care of flashing all partitions at once (automatically). |
||
46 | |||
47 | Lastly the operator can also flash images remotely through @/APP/bin/oam_start@. |
