How to Update Frontprocessor

Tested with the latest PLI-Image

Copy file avrmain.hex to your ET9000 ( /lib/firmware/ ) and overwrite the file.
Open your telnet client: Put in the following code :

Code:
/etc/init.d/fpupdate
the avrmain.hex will be written.


Another option to install the avrmain.hex:
Open your telnet client and put in the following:


Code:
#!/bin/sh
if ! [ -f /lib/firmware/avrmain.hex ]; then
exit 0
fi
if ! [ -x /usr/bin/fpupdate ]; then
exit 0
fi
/usr/bin/fpupdate /lib/firmware/avrmain.hex 10 && rm /lib/firmware/avrmain.hex

Reboot your box!
