The last SLOF update from Fixstars is JX-1.7.0-6-powerstation.bin. The instructions and file have disappeared from the Fixstars website :-/ The instructions below are the ones I used for JX-1.7.0-6-powerstation.bin and I'm checking to see if I still have a copy of the file. ================================================================ YDL PowerStation Updating Firmware ? PowerStation This guide provides instructions for updating firmware on the PowerStation from the command line. The procedure requires that you first flash the temporary side and then commit the image to the permanent side. Note that all commands must be run as user root. Download the latest version of firmware from: http://us.fixstars.com/products/powerstation/firmware/ Boot into temporary. Note that the PowerStation is configured to boot into temporary after the power cord is unplugged and plugged back in. Therefore, to ensure the computer is on the temporary side of flash, shut down the computer, pull out the power cord, and, in about 10 seconds, and plug it back in. Power on the system. Once the system has has completely booted, open a terminal window. To flash the temporary side, from a terminal window type: update_flash -f {FILENAME} [ENTER] Replace {FILENAME} with the filename of the downloaded firmware image. The computer will reboot and flash the temporary side. Once the system has completely booted, open a terminal window. To commit from the temporary side to the permanent side, type: update_flash -c [ENTER] Note that you can not commit when in permanent. If you encounter an error message stating you can not overwrite the Active Firmware Image, please contact your Fixstars Solutions account manager.
