Note - This procedure shows how to update one FMod. Make sure to update all installed FMods.
This example assumes the new firmware file (D20Y_metadata.xml) is in the same directory from which you run the command.
Caution - Do not run the update disk_firmware command without the -x D20Y_metadata.xml option. Without this option, the device can become unresponsive. |
