Software Installation
IXB2850 boards are delivered without any software preinstalled (only firmware is
preinstalled). It is the customer’s responsibility to prepare the Linux kernel, file system
and target application. This document provides information on downloading software to
an IXB2850 board (that is, SSU functionality) and running software from a remote
server. See

Diagnostics
The diagnostics are handled by a separate application (outside of the BootROM). By
default, diagnostics are executed under the control of a diagnostic command line
interface (DIAG> prompt). However, the diagnostics can be executed from the Boot
Monitor. This is done by loading the diagnostics image into SDRAM from flash memory,
TFTP server (Ethernet debug port), or through a serial (UART) port.
Running the Diagnostics
To run the diagnostics for the board, perform the following:
If the “Cannot find valid SSU header in 0x01000000-0x012e0000” message is
displayed, then either the
