On the Cyclades FTP server, the directory is under pub/cyclades/
alterpath/KVMnet/released/version_number/filename,
where version_number is V_N.N.N., and N.N.N is the most recent
version number.
For example, 2.1.1. The filename includes the version number in the
following format: zImage_kvm_NNN.bin. The pathname for this

correct pathname and file names for the software (zImage) for the KVM/
net.
