# System Update
|
||||
|
||||
If the system running ROMWBW utilizes the SST39SF040 Flash chip then it is possible to do a System Update in place of
|
||||
a System Upgrade in some cases.
|
||||
|
||||
A System Update would involve only updating the BIOS, ROM applications and CP/M system.
|
||||
|
||||
A System Update may be more favorable than a System Upgrade in cases such as:
|
||||
|
||||
- Overwriting of the ROM drive is not desired.
|
||||
- Space is unavailable to hold a full ROMWBW ROM.
|
||||
- To mimimize time taken to transfer and flash a full ROM.
|
||||
- Configuration changes are only minor and do not impact disk applications.
|
||||
|
||||
The ROMWBW build process generates a system upgrade file along with the normal ROM image and can be identified by the
|
||||
extension ".upd". It will be 128Kb in size. In comparison the normal ROM image will have the extension ".rom" and be
|
||||
512Kb or 1024Kb in size.
|
||||
|
||||
Transferring and flashing the System Update is accomplished in the same manner as described above in *Upgrading* with
|
||||
the required difference being that the flash application needs to be directed to complete a partial flash using the
|
||||
/p command line switch.
|
||||
|
||||
`E>flash write rom.upd /p`
