Verify light on CDROM drive have stopped flashing.

Type cd /cdrom and press Return (there is a space before the /).

Type ls (that’s L and S in lowercase letters) and press Return.

If system return with just the # and no additional info, see section

upgrade CD”

on page 7.

Solution 2

Verify light on CDROM drive have stopped flashing.

Type cd /cdrom and press Return (there is a space before the /).

Type ls (that’s L and S in lowercase letters) and press Return.

If system displays cdrom cdrom0 you are in the wrong directory.

Type cd cdrom0 to navigate to the correct directory.

Solution 3

Manually mount the CD.

Login as root, see section

“Obtaining system access”

on page 6

Type /etc/init.d/volmgt stop and press Return.

Type mkdir /7.01.01 and press Return to make a directory

Type mount -F hsfs /dev/sr0 /7.01.01 and press Return to
manually mount the CD to the 7.01.01 directory.

Note: Type the command exactly as shown:

There is a space after mount, after -F after hsfs, and after sr0.

Pay close attention to the direction of the slash.

The character before the F in -F is a “dash” or “minus sign”.

The last character in sr0 is a ZERO.

Type ls /7.01.01 and press Return to view the files from the CDROM.

If you still cannot view the files, contact Welch Allyn Technical Support.

If you can view the files, type cd /7.01.01 and press Return.

Type ./upgrade.sh and press Return to begin the installation.

Solution 4

Ensure that the CRDROM drive does not contain excessive amounts of dust. Clean
if necessary.

Some customers have reported that cleaning the CDROM drive, with compressed
air (blowing outward) or using a vacuum cleaner has resolved these issues.

Warning: Always power the CPU off before opening the covers to perform
cleaning and preventative maintenance.

Warning: Always use proper static controls when opening CPU covers,
including an anti-static vacuum cleaner if necessary.

Solution 5

Some problem have been reported when the CPU is mounted in a manner that puts
the CDROM drive in a vertical orientation.

Adjust the CPU orientation during the upgrade as necessary, so that the CDROM
drive is in a horizontal orientation.
