Special Install Instructions:
----------------------------- 
 
    This README is intended for users who wish to upgrade the firmware
    in their Netra ct system Flash PROM.
 
This patch contains a script that can be used to upgrade the Open
Boot PROM (OBP) image of a Netra ct system.
 
You should first create a backup of your current OBP NVRAM settings
by entering the command "/usr/sbin/eeprom > /nvram.settings"
 
When you are ready to upgrade the OBP, run the script:
/usr/platform/SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Netract/OBP/Update.to.3.14.6.ct
 
The script will prompt with a warning and allow Continuation
of Termination of the OBP upgrade.  Answer "C" to install the
OBP upgrade.
 
WARNING!!!
----------
  Do not interrupt or power-down your system while the OBP is
being upgraded!  Doing so may result in in OBP flash damage
and may be unrecoverable
----------
 
After the OBP upgrade, the system must be reset.  As root,
enter the command "reboot" to reset the system.
 
Based on the OBP version in the system before the upgrade, the
NVRAM configurations variables may be lost.  You can use
the /nvram.settings backup file to restore any specific
NVRAM settings for your site.  A reboot will be required for
any changed NVRAM settings to take effect.
