			=== Install NFS server on your computer ===

			To install NFS server on your Debian/Ubuntu GNU/Linux execute:

			<pre>
			sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server nfs-common portmap
			</pre>

			When configuring portmap do *not* bind loopback.

			Now configure exported file systems:

			<pre>
			sudo vi /etc/exports
			</pre>

			and put this text inside:

			<pre>
			/nfs/elphel353-2.10 192.168.0.15/24(rw,no_root_squash)
			</pre>

			last stage:

			<pre>
			sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
			sudo exportfs -a
			</pre>

			Your NFS server should be up and running.

	~~I. ''removed - was old style reflashing''~~		==== I. Reflash from camera: ====
	==== II. Reflash from camera: ====
	1. ~~setup NFS server with firmware in directory (by default~~, ~~server with IP 192.168~~.0.~~15 and firmware placed in /nfs/elphel353-2.10 directory);~~ you ~~must~~ use ~~for NFS folder options rw,no_root_squash~~.		This work only if you upgrade from 7.1., if you are upgrading from 7.0. you need to use method II.
	2. login with telnet to camera with login "root" and password "pass"
	3. edit file /etc/reflash.conf, if needed, and change NFS server address and directory, where placed firmware		<pre>
	4. type "reflash"		1. login with telnet to camera with login "root" and password "pass"
	5. check flash log file on NFS server in directory with firmware, log file name is flash.log.MAC-ADDRESS_of_camera		2. edit file /etc/reflash.conf, if needed, and change NFS server address and directory, where placed firmware
			3. type "reflash"
			4. check flash log file on NFS server in directory with firmware, log file name is flash.log.MAC-ADDRESS_of_camera
			</pre>

			==== II. Reflash from computer with ktest: ====

			Your current working directory should be the CVS tree. (normally it should be ~/elphel353-2.10

			Do not forget to change the mac address, the camera's IP and the IP of your NFS server (your computer)

			If you are performing an upgrade from 7.0.* you should use "cmd=all" in other case use "cmd=update"

	~~==== III~~. ~~Reflash from computer with ktest: ====~~		Unlike the previous method for this one you need to press the green button on the back of the camera while booting.

	~~1. set up NFS server as in II.1 step~~		ktest parameters & options:
	~~2. run~~ ktest ~~with~~ parameters ~~'./ktest [-d ethX]~~ options'
	[-d ethX] - network interface to camera, by default, eth0		* [-d ethX] - network interface to camera, by default, eth0
	~~options - parameters for camera:~~		* mac=OOOE64000000 - MAC address for camera; if SERNO in camera boot block not present, this MAC address will be written in bootblock
	mac=OOOE64000000 - MAC address for camera; if SERNO in camera boot block not present, this MAC address be ~~writted~~ in bootblock		* ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - ip for camera (by default, 192.168.0.9)
	ip=xx.xx.xx.xx - ip for camera (by default, 192.168.0.9)		* nfs=192.168.0.15:/nfs/elphel353-2.10 - NFS server, where placed firmware.
	nfs=192.168.0.15:/nfs/elphel353-2.10 - NFS server, where placed firmware.		* cmd=boot\|update\|all
	cmd=boot\|update\|all
	- boot - just boot camera, don't touch flash memory, by default		** boot - just boot camera, don't touch flash memory, by default
	- update - update firmware (results as in II)		** update - update firmware (results as in II)
	- all - rewrite all partitions on camera (be careful with this option)		** all - rewrite all partitions on camera (be careful with this option)
	~~Example:~~
	./ktest ~~-d eth0 mac=000E64000000\ ip=192~~.~~168.0.9\ nfs=192.168.0.15:~~/nfs/elphel353-2.10~~\ cmd~~=~~update~~
	3. ~~when camera started from~~ ktest~~, it~~'s boot and try ~~write firmware~~ from ~~NFS server - check log on NFS server~~		When the camera started from ktest, it boot, mount NFS share and write the firmware to the flash.

			If the firmware was flashed successfully you should see a log file in /nfs/elphel353-2.10 finishing with "done".

			Only after this you can unplug the Ethernet cable for 10 seconds and reconnect the camera. (those 10 seconds are due to a bug that will be corrected in near future)

			==== Troubleshouting ====

			If you see only "Starting boot..." and nothing after it mean what you forgot the ktest's "-d" parameter or did not press the green button on the camera when power up.

			If you see something after "Starting boot...", but do not see any log files in your NFS share after one minute it probably mean what the camera was not able to mount the NFS share. The camera will remain booted from the network and accessible trouth telnet. You may telnet to the camera and manually try to execute one by one commands from /bin/reflash script. (just to see what's wrong)
