NAME
	optdload - Optical device firmware downloader tool.
 
SYNOPSIS
 
	optdload [-v] [-l] [-d <device node> [ -f <fw filename>]
 
DESCRIPTION
 
	optdload tool provides the ability to download firmware into the
	Toshiba DVD 1401 optical device. This tool can only be used by 
	super user for the purpose of downloading the more recent
	microcode. 
 
OPTIONS
 
	-d <device node>
		The device on to which the firmware need to be 
		downloaded.
 
	-f <fw filename>
		The firmware filename. This should be used in
		conjunction with -d option, to override the default
		firmware file associated with the type of the device.
		A sanity check on the contents of the firmware file will be
		done before the download is initiated. A CRC checksum is
		maintained in a database inside this tool to make sure
		sane contents are downloaded into the device. If no
		-f option is provided, the default firmware file name is
		used and the same is expected to be available in the
		current working directory.
 
	-l	Provides a mechanism to see the  list of downloadable
		devices available in the system.
 
 
	-v	Verbose mode.	
 
NOTE
	The downloader process is very sensitive, hence any disruption during
	the process of downloading the firmware could result in permanent
	damage to the device. It is recommended that the  user take all 
	precautions so that no SCSI RESET on the same bus or prevent the 
	device from being powered off during the download process.
	The download process will take approximately five minutes to complete.
 
6) In the patch directory, type the "optdload" command:
 
	# ./optdload
 
   The optdload command will take the user through the download process
   if a downloadable device is present on the system.
 
7) Reboot the system:
 
	# cd
	# reboot
 
8) After the system has rebooted, login as root and check the
   revision of the firmware:
 
	# iostat -E | grep DVD
 
   The output will look like this:
