Standard Hardware:
Please consult the Barracuda Networks Technical Support for information on Barracuda NG Firewall 5.0.3 on standard hardware..

If you are going to upgrade standard hardware or phion netfence hardware to Barracuda NG Firewall 5.0.3, please
ensure that at least 2 GB of free storage space is available on the root partition. If this minimum amount of space is
not available, Barracuda Networks highly recommends to re-install the system with a larger root partition instead of
upgrading. On appliances with hard disk, the upgrade package requires additionally another 2 GB of free storage
space on the /phion0 partition for storing temporary data. This additional space is not necessary on Flash based
appliances.
