section of this document.

Packaging
=========
This firmware upgrade utility is released in SCEXE format. The
file is a single self-extracting executable that unpacks the
component, runs it, and cleans up. This one-step process replaces
the rpm format which would require three steps to install, execute
and remove.


Performing the Firmware Upgrade
===============================
1. This utility requires the hp-igb KMP to be built and installed 
using the source rpm version >= 3.1.16-3. Refer the text file that
accompanies hp-igb source rpm for instructions to build and install

2. igb driver module must be installed and interfaces recognized

3. Firmware can be upgraded interactively using following command:

	# ./CP00xxxx.scexe

4. The help menu lists all available command line options.

	# ./CP00xxxx.scexe -h


Firmware Upgrade Log
====================
Results of the firmware upgrade are written to bootutil.log which 
gets saved in the current working directory.
