.TH serload 1 19.08.2001 Distribution "SIMpad Serial Download"
.SH NAME
serload - Downloading a new image to the SIMpad
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B serload
.I [IMAGEFILENAME] [ttyS-PORT]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B serload
downloads a new image to the SIMpad using
the serial port. You need to connect the SIMpad
to your PC with the delivered serial crossover cable
and execute
.B serload
with the image name as parameter.
As an optional parameter, you can provide the serial port
for
.B serload
to use, otherwise, /dev/ttyS0 is assumed as
default.
.B serload
will ask you to reset the SIMpad to
download the new image. Depending on the image, it will
be burnt into the Flash or directly executed in the
RAM without burning.
.P
You can update the operating system,
the firmware (PBL), and the bootloader with this utility. Updating
the bootloader needs two steps: 1st downloading/burning
a special bootloader (the so-called alternativ bootloader),
2nd downloading/burning the new bootloader.
