Grass Valley K2 Solo 3G Client Service Manual v.9.0 - Manual (Page 65)

Restoring from a generic image
This task can be used on a K2 Solo 3G system that needs to be restored to its factory default state.
For example, if you neglected to make a first birthday image, you might need to use this procedure.
If the image from which you are restoring was made from the specific machine, refer to the
appropriate procedure.
This task provides instructions for accessing an image on the Recovery Flash Drive. If you access
an image from a different location, such as a network connected drive or another connected USB
drive, alter the steps in this task as appropriate. There can be multiple versions of the generic recovery
disk image on the Recovery Flash Drive. Refer to related topics in "K2 Release Notes" to determine
which version you should use.
NOTE: This procedure restores the K2 Solo 3G system to its factory default condition. Passwords
and other site-specific configurations are reset to factory defaults.
