install.txt    What the install should look like
kernel-*.tar  Tar file with the packages and kernel image.

1.  Copy kernel-*.tar and *.md5 to the Conduit directory /var/volatile.
    scp or winscp would be good.  User mtadm.

2.  Log into Conduit

3.  cd /var/volatile

4.  md5sum -c *.md5

5.  tar -xf kernel-*.tar

6.  cd kernel-*

7.  sudo ./install.sh

This will take about 20 minutes.

The install must not be interrupted.  opkg does not always clean up after an
aborted install.

At this point the kernel image is installed, followed by the module packages.
If there are errors you should see messages:
ERROR: ...

There is a log in file /tmp/opkglog*

The log must be copied from the Conduit before rebooting if there are issues.

7.  sudo reboot

8.  New kernel can be verified:

uname -r

(Old kernel is 3.12.27)

Packages can be verified:

opkg list-installed | fgrep '3.12.70'
