R - [R]eceive new boot image from serial port

This will start the ZMODEM transfer engine that transfers a single binary bootrom image file to POST using the service port. It should not be used to receive other kinds of binary image files. If the transfer is successful then POST will program the bootrom image into the FLASH memory device.

While waiting for the file, POST will display:

**B000000023be50

At this point the operator may transfer the bootrom “.bin” file to POST using the ZMODEM protocol. Refer to terminal emulator documentation for details on how to do this. After the file is transferred, POST will display:

File transfer and update PASSED

ZMODEM Messages:

Writing to flash:MMMMMMMM-NNNN

MMMMMMMMis the address that is being written in FLASH memory and NNNN is the length of the image. At this point the operator should choose option “B”, Cold [B]oot from primary bootrom.” If errors are encountered, POST will display appropriate messages along with the line:

File transfer and update FAILED

V- full [V]ersion information
