Description | Flash partition upgrade method, ie., method by which
new files can be downloaded into the partition.
FLH stands for Flash Load Helper, a feature provided
on run-from-Flash systems for upgrading Flash. This
feature uses the bootstrap code in ROMs to help in
automatic download.
This object should be retrieved if the partition
status is runFromFlash(2).
If the partition status is readOnly(1), the upgrade
method would depend on the reason for the readOnly
status. For eg., it may simply be a matter of installing
the programming jumper, or it may require execution of a
later version of software that supports the Flash chips.
unknown - the current system image does not know
how Flash can be programmed. A possible
method would be to reload the ROM image
and perform the upgrade manually.
rxbootFLH - the Flash Load Helper is available to
download files to Flash. A copy-to-flash
command can be used and this system image
will automatically reload the Rxboot image
in ROM and direct it to carry out the
download request.
direct - will be done directly by this image. |
