Hi list,
The upgrade should only be copied and used on cards that we send you, as
the
card must meet certain requirements and formatting conditions before
Iboot,
which is the software that starts before the operating system, will read
it
and upgrade the software.
The other reason it's important to only use cards we recommend, is that if
something fails, you have no way of reversing the changes, since all
changes
are taking place in ROM.
