How to change the VxWorks kernel in the ROM
-------------------------------------------

At the ROM prompt "->" type

	ld < /dataflow/tgt/flashProg
	sysFlashProgramBootRom "/dataflow/tgt/10HD.vxWorks.st_rom.Pxx-yy-zz"

Check the directory /nfs/bbr-srv02/dataflow/tgt/ to get a list of possible
ODF kernel releases.  As of 5 September 2001, the latest is P02-09-03.


Where do the ROM startup scripts live?
--------------------------------------

For Proto II, the scripts are in $ODF_ROOT/protoii/dch-1/.

The CORE ODF startup script is "dfs/startup", which is a symbolic link to
some specific script in the dfs/ directory.  Right now, it is pointing to
dfs/startup.flash, so that the core ODF libraries are loaded from the
onboard flash memory (see below).

The DCH startup script is "app/startup", which is also a symlink.  At the
moment, it points to app/startup.onelib, which loads a single consolidated
library containing all the DCH, calibration, and related libraries, as well
as the actual DCH startup executable (main).

	
How to flash the core ODF libraries into the ROM
------------------------------------------------

From Amedeo Perazzo:
> to flash core ODF you can copy the file:
> 
> $ODF_ROOT/tgt/startup.save-dfs-to-flash
>  
> to your startup script and reboot. After that you can use
>  
> $ODF_ROOT/tgt/startup.load-dfs-from-flash
>  
> to load. If you have problems email me and I'll come to the teststand


How to upgrade the ROM libraries
--------------------------------

Build the libraries in the DchProto2 test release area, using
|DchTestStand/build-release.csh|.

Copy the libraries into the DataFlow area, attaching a symbolic "tag" to
keep them as a distinct set.  Use |DchTestStand/installDchOdf.csh|, and
answer the prompts.

Create symbolic links in the ROM upload area, $ODF_ROOT/protoii/lib/,
pointing the generic library names to a specific tag, created above.  Use
|DchTestStand/linkDchOdf.csh|, and answer the prompts.
