(One NBL Flash)

Program the NetBootLoader to FLASH

DESCRIPTION:

To update the NetBootLoader itself, the command “clone” is used.
If the application image source for programming is to be the data

buffer, the image must first be downloaded to the data buffer from an

tftp/ftp server. Otherwise, additional Flash must be available to

provide the image to be cloned (see section 2.7.5).
To program from the data buffer, the command “clone -n” is used.
The new image is checked for validity. If an image is invalid, the

update is aborted. Additionally, the operation must be confirmed by

typing the word “yes”. Any other or no input will cancel the operation.
