I have a Nokia IP350 firewall appliance running IPSO 3.7. I have to upgrade this to Nokia IPSO 4.2.
I have started the process by accessing the bootmgr after a reboot. I issued the "install" command and it has prompted me for a password. All personnel that might have known the password have moved. I found several solutions which suggested removing the hard drive, doing a dd copy of the nkipflash.bin file and the result is now the bootmgr has been hosed. At the current time, the bootmge prompt does appear but only after I receive the following on the console:
/dev/wd0f on /mnt: Incorrect super block
Error: /image on /dev/wd0f
does not exist or is not a file
umount: /mnt: not currently mounted
boot failed
Any help would be appreciated.

- While this reply was helpful, it does not fix my problem. At the bootmgr prompt, ftp is not available as a command option. I can not issue the "install" command without having to issue a password to verify that I have access to the hard drive. That bootmgr password has been lost/forgotten.
I have tried a "dd" copy of the nkipflash.bin prior to this as well. I beleive that is what messed up the boot process.
1. Get the IPSO image you want to install. 2. Copy it to an internal host capable of FTP. 3. Connect to the console on the IP130 and start it up, when you get past the bootmanager part where it shows the prompt BOOTMGR[1]>install then ftp or help a few other commands
4. The interactive prompts should help you figure out what to do (like assign it an IP and ftp to the server). 5. Let it install the image and reboot.
