1. Copy the bootable kernel image (the appropriate rlse_setup.exe file, where
<rlse> is the Data ONTAP release) to your system. Copy the boot image from
the boot directory at /etc/boot/netapp-x86-64, or download it from the IBM
N series support website, which is accessed and navigated as described in
"Websites" on page xx. On the IBM N series support website, the Data
ONTAP Matrix provides a current list and history of Data ONTAP releases
available by release family and supported storage systems.
Contact technical support if you cannot get a boot image from these sources.
Make sure that you download the file designed for administering for a PC
and that it is the correct release of Data ONTAP for your system.

CompactFlash card is pre-formatted. Do not format the CompactFlash card.
3. Extract the contents of the rlse_setup.exe file to a temporary folder on your
PC.
4. Create a folder called x86_64 in the root partition of the CompactFlash card,
and then create a subfolder called KERNEL in the x86_64 folder.
5. Move the bootable kernel image into the KERNEL folder in Windows Explorer.
The bootable kernel image is called netapp_<rlse>-x86-64. It is located on
your PC in the boot folder in the files you extracted from rlse_setup.exe.
6. Rename the netapp_<rlse>-x86-64 image to Primary.KRN.
