Reinstalling or Upgrading the Boot Manager

upgraded automatically if your system does not have the boot manager for the
image you are adding. For information about adding Nokia IPSO images, see
the Getting Started Guide and Release Notes for the version of Nokia IPSO
you are running.

manager independently of your adding a Nokia IPSO image, or upgrading or
downgrading the Nokia IPSO system. Run the install and upgrade commands
from the IPSO command line.

version that is not compatible, you are prevented from doing so.
