/ramdisk>reboot

Upgrading the Root File System & User Directory

The UC-7101/7110/7112 uses JFFS2 for the root file system and user directory. By default, the

root file system is pre-set to READ only. The UC-7101/7110/7112 provides a read/write user’s

directory in the JFFS2 file system. Use this user’s directory to store the system configuration file

and user’s programs on the disk.

You can search the UC-7101/7110/7112’s CD-ROM for the latest user directory file, or download

the file from www.moxa.com. The format of the file is uc7110-3.x.dsk (uc7112-1.x.dsk for

UC-7112). You must download this file to a PC first, and then use the console terminal or Telnet

console to copy the file to the UC-7101/7110/7112.

You can save this file to the UC-7101/7110/7112’s RAM disk, and then upgrade the user directory.

A step-by-step example is shown below.

Use the following commands to enable the RAM disk:

/>upramdisk

/>cd ramdisk

Use the built-in FTP client to download the uc7110-3.x.dsk file from the PC:

/ramdisk>ftp <destination PC’s IP>

ftp> bin

ftp> get uc7110-3.x.dsk

ftp>quit

/ramdisk>upkernel /ramdisk/uc7110-3.x.dsk

/reboot
