linuxAP-eh bundle package's README
==================================

WARNING: 66Mhz images may NOT work !!

NOTE: if you are upgrading an old version of linuxAP-eh, follow the next
      instructions to automatically upgrade your config files (if you don't
      want to reflash with '-o' option)
      Server:
      	copy updateconfigs.sh on your tftp server directory
      linuxAP-eh box (literally tiped):
        cd /etc/rw/
	tftp -g -l updateconfigs.sh -r updateconfigs.sh IP_tftp_server
	chmod 0777 updateconfigs.sh
	./updateconfigs.sh
	rm updateconfigs.sh
	save_config
	reboot
	


Flash Images
------------

Start up the box, copy extracted files 'flash' and 'flash.md5' on your tftp
server directory, and execute this command:
	reflash flash IP_tftp_server

if you want also to overwrite the config files with the ones provided on the
new version, execute:
	reflash -o flash IP_tftp_server



Sram Images
-----------

Extracted from OpenAP's README:

--------------8<--------------
Since the default AP software (that which comes with the AP fresh from the
factory) won't upgrade itself automatically to the linux system you need to
boot off a PCMCIA flash card the first time you move from the old software to
Linux.  The mechanics of openning the case, replacing the card and shorting the
jumper is described elsewhere.  The SRAM image creation is described here. 

It is probably easiest if you just use the sram image found on
opensource.instant802.com rather than build your own.  Once you have a default
image into the AP you can upgrade it with the 'reflash' command.

There is a target in the Makefile 'sram'.  It should do everything you need
provided you have already build an appropriate flash image (maybe you created
it with 'make bootstrap').

Once you have the image 'sram' you need to write it to your sram card.  The
Linux pcmcia drivers should detect your sram card when you insert it and create
some new device node that look something like this:

crw-r--r--    1 root     root     253,   0 Jan 17 16:11 /dev/mem0c0c

See man memory_cs(4) for more info.  Don't write to the /dev/mem*a* devices
since that is the attribute memory for the card.  You risk messing the
attributes up so PCMCIA can't identify your card.  You want to copy the 2 MB
sram image to the flash card enough times to fill it up [1].  If you have a 4MB
sram card you can do something like:

# cat sram sram >  /dev/mem0c0c

Voila.  The card is ready.
