m4500 firmware upgrade
Anyone had any joy upgrading the firmware on a 4500 using TFTP? What are the two files for (onie-installer..... and QNOS......)?

Hi c_b,
I can help you with that. if you are still having trouble!
So ONIE is the boot loader installer.
The QNOS is the operating system.
Now depending on where you are in the boot, if you get to a screen where you need to choose either of those you wan to choose QNOS, this will boot into the operating system. Also do you know what firmware was installed on this?
Thanks,
