--------------------------------
1) This patch is distributed in two ways, on a CD or as a compressed tar
archive. Read the following before using the tool.

<patch number>.tar.Z or <patch number>.tar, unpack the
patch into any directory. For example:
# cp <patch number>.tar.Z /tmp
# cd /tmp
# zcat <patch number>.tar.Z |tar xvf -
or
# tar xvf <patch number>.tar
b) If the patch is on a CD, make sure to copy the entire patch

-------------------------------------
****************************************************************************

* the device(s).
****************************************************************************

2) Turn off volume manager:
# /etc/init.d/volmgt stop
3) If the CD/DVD is manually mounted, unmount the mounted CD/DVD media:
# cd /
# umount <mount point>
4) Change the current working directory to the directory where the patch exists:
# cd /tmp/<patch number>

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.
