Using the Flash Update Utility from the SRM Console

To update the firmware from the SRM console, do the following:
1. Insert the Firmware Update CD-ROM into the CD drive.
2. Type the show device command to determine the device ID of the CD drive.
>>>show device
dka0.0.0.6.0
dka400.4.0.6.0
dva0.0.0.0.1
ena0.0.0.1.1
pka0.7.0.6.0
3. Boot the Firmware Update Utility CD-ROM using the device ID displayed in step 2.
(If you are using the update floppy, the device ID would be dva0.)
>>>b dka400
You should see a display similar to the following, while the update utility is loading
