A.4 Flashing the BMC Firmware in the Linux
Environment
YAFUFlash is used to flash the BMC firmware in the Linux environment using network or
USB connections. To flash the BMC in Linux, follow the instructions below.
Step 1 Open the Terminal. Go to YafuFlash/Linux path.
Step 2 The file libipmi.so 1 should be accessible to a Linux system. Usually when running an
application, Linux will search for a file in dependent libraries in default locations, such as
usr/lib/lib folders.
Step 3 Copy libipmi.so.1 to /lib or /usr/lib. Run "1dconfig" or Copy libipmi.so.1 to a folder and issue
the following command:
#LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<location_of_libipmi_so>/Yafuflash
You may have to create a link to libipmi.so.1.0 (ln-sf libipmi.so.1.0 libipmi.so.1).
Step 4 Run "Yafuflash.exe" in the terminal.
Step 5 Use the settings as listed below.
Format: /Yafu flash [OPTION] [MEDIUM] [FW_IMAGE_FILE].
