Running the AFU from the GUI
The easy way to run the AFU is to use its Graphical User Interface
(GUI). If you prefer to run the AFU from the command line, see
page C-5.
To access the AFU:
1 Create the firmware floppy disks, as described in Creating the
Firmware Floppy Disks on page C-3.
2 Shut down your operating system and reboot to DOS from a
bootable MS-DOS floppy disk or from a DOS partition on a
bootable drive. (You can use the drive connected to the
controller you are updating.)
Note: When you are updating the controller flash, no I/O is
possible. Before you can use the controller again, complete
the flash operation and restart the computer.
3 At the DOS command prompt (typically
A:\>), type
AFU
with no
arguments.
The AFU’s main menu is displayed.
