your upgrade goes as smoothly as possible.


1) Get the new ComOS AND its release notes off the livingston web site.


2) READ the release notes.


3) If you don't have them, get the ComOS and release notes for your 
current version of the ComOS.


4) Read the current ComOS release notes.


5) Read the new ComOS release notes.


6) install, configure and test a tftp server within you local network.  
Look in chapter 19 of the blue config guide for information.

8) copy both the current and new ComOS versions onto the tftp server and 
your pmconsole or pminstall host.
