Install U-Boot (If a Newer Version is Available)

After checking the U-Boot version, if a newer version is available, you will have to do a U-Boot installation.

Install U-Boot after the image installation if it does not match the Bootloader Version column in Bootloader Code by GigaVUE-OS Release. Use this procedure in particular when you are upgrading from an older software version.

After the image installation of 5.8.xx, use the following command (type uboot in full):

(config) # show uboot

If there is a newer U-Boot version available, the output of the show uboot command displays it. For example in the following output, the installed U-Boot is 2011.06.8, but 2011.06.9 is available for installation.

* Installed U-Boot binary: 2011.06.8 (Dec 06 2016 - 04:35:29)
* U-Boot binary from active/booted image: 2011.06.9 (Feb 09 2017-02:16:26)

If there is a newer U-Boot version available, use the following command to install it:

(config) # uboot install

The binary bootloader code included with the installed image is installed.

Note:  The newer U-Boot version only goes into effect after a reload.
