How to upgrade SOLO via USB memory stick

In USB memory stick,
make \\vuplus\solo\ folder and copy the following 3 files to that location

1) root_cfe_auto.jffs2
2) kernel_cfe_auto.bin
3) boot_cfe_auto.jffs2
Insert USB Memory stick into the front USB socket and then Power Off and Power On again.
After power-on, VuPlus SOLO automatically start upgrade using the files in the USB memory stick.
When upgrade is finished, the GREEN LED on front side blinks continuously.
Remove the memory stick and power off and on again.

Also there is bootloader update http://www2.vuplus.c...ate-vu-solo-cfe which is required for 3.1.1 kernel images (incl. openpli)
