-Go to the administration section and choose the menu item
-<literal>Upgrade</literal>. You can then browse your disk for the
-installer image you have previously downloaded. Then press the
-<literal>Start Upgrade</literal> button, confirm, wait for a few minutes
-and confirm again. The system will then boot straight into the installer.

-You can use <command>upslug2</command> from any Linux or Unix machine to
-upgrade the machine via the network. This software is packaged for
-&debian;.
-
-First, you have to put your NSLU2 in upgrade mode:

-<orderedlist>

-Press and release the power button to power on the NSLU2.

-Wait for 10 seconds watching the ready/status LED. After 10 seconds it
-will change from amber to red. Immediately release the reset button.
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-The NSLU2 ready/status LED will flash alternately red/green (there is a 1
-second delay before the first green). The NSLU2 is now in upgrade mode.
-
-</para></listitem>
-</orderedlist>
-
-See the <ulink
-url="http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/OpenSlug/UsingTheBinary">NSLU2-Linux
-pages</ulink> if you have problems with this.
-
-Once your NSLU2 is in upgrade mode, you can flash the new image:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-sudo upslug2 -i di-nslu2.bin
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-Note that the tool also shows the MAC address of your NSLU2, which may come
-in handy to configure your DHCP server. After the whole image has been
-written and verified, the system will automatically reboot. Make sure you
-connect your USB disk again now, otherwise the installer won't be able to
-find it.

- <title>Booting the SS4000-E</title>
-<para>
-
-Due to limitations in the SS4000-E firmware, it unfortunately is not
-possible to boot the installer without the use of a serial port at
-this time. To boot the installer, you will need a serial nullmodem
-cable; a computer with a serial port<footnote id="arm-s4ke-port">
-
-<para>
-A USB serial converter will also work.
-</para>
-
-</footnote>; and a ribbon cable with a male DB9 connector at one end,
-and a 10-pin .1" IDC header at the other<footnote id="arm-s4k-rib">
-
-<para>
-This cable is often found in older desktop machines with builtin 9-pin
-serial ports.
-</para>
-
-</footnote>.
-
-</para><para>
-
-To boot the SS4000-E, use your serial nullmodem cable and the ribbon
-cable to connect to the serial port of the SS4000-E, and reboot the
-machine. You need to use a serial terminal application to communicate
-with the machine; a good option on a &debian; GNU/Linux is to use the
-<command>cu</command> program, in the package of the same name. Assuming
-the serial port on your computer is to be found on
-<filename>/dev/ttyS0</filename>, use the following command line:
-
-</para>
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-cu -lttyS0 -s115200
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-<para>
-
-If using Windows, you may want to consider using the program
-<classname>hyperterminal</classname>. Use a baud rate of 115200,
-8 bits word length, no stop bits, and one parity bit.
-
-</para><para>
-
-When the machine boots, you will see the following line of output:
-
-</para>
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-No network interfaces found
-
-EM-7210 ver.T04 2005-12-12 (For ver.AA)
-== Executing boot script in 1.000 seconds - enter ^C to abort
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-<para>
-
-At this point, hit Control-C to interrupt the boot
-loader<footnote id="arm-s4ke-sec">
-
-<para>
-Note that you have only one second to do so; if you miss this window,
-just powercycle the machine and try again.
-</para>
-
-</footnote>. This will give you the RedBoot prompt. Enter the
-following commands:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-load -v -r -b 0x01800000 -m ymodem ramdisk.gz
-load -v -r -b 0x01008000 -m ymodem zImage
-exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/ram mem=256M@0xa0000000" -r 0x01800000
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-</para><para>
-
-After every <command>load</command> command, the system will expect a
-file to be transmitted using the YMODEM protocol. When using cu, make
-sure you have the package <classname>lrzsz</classname> installed, then
-hit enter, followed by the <quote>~&lt;</quote> escape sequence to start
-an external program, and run <command>sb initrd.gz</command> or
-<command>sb vmlinuz</command>.
-
-</para><para>
-
-Alternatively, it is possible to load the kernel and ramdisk using
-HTTP rather than YMODEM. This is faster, but requires a working HTTP
-server on the network. To do so, first switch the bootloader to RAM mode:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-fis load rammode
-g
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-</para><para>
-
-This will seemingly restart the machine; but in reality, it loads
-reboot to RAM and restarts it from there. Not doing this step will cause
-the system to hang in the necessary ip_address step that comes next.
-
-</para><para>
-
-You will need to hit Ctrl-C again to interrupt the boot. Then:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-ip_address -l 192.168.2.249 -h 192.168.2.4
-load -v -r -b 0x01800000 -m http /initrd.gz
-load -v -r -b 0x01008000 -m http /zImage
-exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/ram mem=256M@0xa0000000" -r 0x01800000
-</screen></informalexample>

-The installer will now start as usual.
