Manually Upgrade the Software Bundle on CE1

Oct 2023


Introduction

Unlike the RX1, the CE1 software cannot be upgraded from the UI, for the most part, upgraded are implemented via SSH.


SSH in to the unit:

ssh@ipaddress
login as: mfeng/2u4y&C



Elevate yourself to the root user:

  sudo -s (enter password 2u4y&C)



Give yourself write access to the upgrade folder:

  chmod go+w /opt/mediakind/robust-upgrade/mnt/bundles/import



Copy the upgrade bundle to the following path:

  /opt/mediakind/robust-upgrade/mnt/bundles/import    (if you have issues with permissions, copy the bundle to /home/mfeng then move it to /opt/mediakind/robust-upgrade/mnt/bundles/import



Import the bundle using the bundle manager:

  sudo bundle_manager import ce1-xxxxxxxx



Once the bundle has been imported, you should see the message:

  SUCCESS=True.



Use the bundle manager to check availabe bundles:

  sudo bundle_manager get_bundles



You should see a list of at least 2 bundles, and their versions: (because there are two banks)

  ce1_3.2.0.0_908073010.mkb
  ce1_3.1.0.1_0.mkb



To deploy the new bundle, use the bundle manager: WARNING, THIS WILL REBOOT THE BOX IMMEDIATELY!!!

  sudo bundle_manager switch_to ce1_//your_version//



Once rebooted, login again via SSH and use the bundle manager to check the version:

  sudo bundle_manager get_version



The CE1/RX1 are very short on disk space, use the bundle manager to remove any old bundles.

  sudo bundle_manager clear_auto



This will delete any bundle files not currently in use in either bank.
