Title: Install software via FTP and VXworks
Post by: Chris Buonanno on February 25, 2021, 03:34:02 PM: Hi, I'm trying to install the software by changing the boot parameters in VxWorks but it just doesn't work, these are the settings I'm using:

boot device : motfcc
unit number : 0
processor number : 0
host name : bootHost
file name : Boot_Install
inet on ethernet (e) : 192.168.1.2:ffffff00
host inet (h) : 192.168.1.3
gateway inet (g) : 192.168.1.1
user (u) : ftp
ftp password (pw) : ftp
flags (f) : 0x0
other (o) : FixPartition

I have an ftp server running on my laptop with correct IP but I get this message when it fails:

boot device : ?????????motfcc
unit number : 0
processor number : 0
host name : bootHost
file name : Boot????????????????????????Boot_Install
inet on ethernet (e) : 192.168.1.2:ffffff00
host inet (h) : 192.168.1.3
gateway inet (g) : 192.168.1.1
user (u) : ftp
ftp password (pw) : ??ftp
flags (f) : 0x0
other (o) : ???????fixpartition????????????FixPartition

Can't load boot file!!

I'm trying to install MCD 6.0 as it's on a test system basically for practice

Any ideas or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

Also turn the firewall completely off on your PC.
