Note that image-bmc is provided for external recovery and reflashing purposes.  Attempting to flash image-bmc to installed system package versions lower than v2.00 will destroy your U-Boot environment variables, requiring that you reconfigure the MAC address of the BMC from the IPMI MAC sticker on the mainboard.  Version 2.00 and higher do not have this limitation and it is safe to use the image-bmc upgrade process.

Summary

Built from https://git.raptorcs.com/git/talos-openbmc/tag/?h=raptor-v2.00
Corresponding GIT hash, as shown on test reports: 67efd9872fc3aaa63350bd1722f6bc0346bf8460

A one time process is required to upgrade from firmware versions below 2.00. Please read the following instructions carefully before proceeding.

Upgrade Instructions
  • Ensure that the BMC and PNOR was previously updated to System Package v1.06, and that that your system successfully boots after that update
  • Extract the shell_upgrade/talos-ii-v2.00-image-bmc.bz2 file from shell_upgrade/talos-ii-v2.00-image-bmc.bz2
  • Decompress talos-ii-v2.00-image-bmc.bz2 and rename to image-bmc
  • Power down your system
  • Issue reboot on the BMC
  • Transfer the decompressed BMC image file to /run/initramfs/image-bmc on the BMC
  • Run "fw_printenv | grep eth1addr" and write down the MAC address. You will need this information later
  • Issue "reboot" on the BMC
  • After BMC restart (this may take 5-10 minutes):
    • fw_setenv ethaddr <IPMI MAC address written down earlier>
    • fw_setenv eth1addr <IPMI MAC address written down earlier>

Note that image-bmc is provided for external recovery and reflashing purposes. Attempting to flash image-bmc to installed system package versions lower than v2.00 will destroy your U-Boot environment variables, requiring that you reconfigure the MAC address of the BMC from the IPMI MAC sticker on the mainboard. Version 2.00 and higher do not have this limitation and it is safe to use the image-bmc upgrade process.
