DESCRIPTION:

To update the NetBootLoader itself, the command CLONE is used.
The image source for programming is either the data buffer (-n) (of

the currently specified core) or one or the other of the two NBL Flash

memories depending on the “-a” option selection.
The new image is checked for validity. If an image is invalid, the

update is aborted.
Further, the operation must be confirmed by typing the word “yes”.

Any other or no input will cancel the operation.
When used with the SCRIPT command, the -y option must be

specified or the clone operation will be terminated.
