This commit aims to improve the documentation's navigability by redefining some categories' purposes and titles. There is a redirection rule for each documentation page moved. This ensures that users won't have a 404 error message. task-3217827 closes odoo/documentation#7981 Signed-off-by: Jonathan Castillo (jcs) <jcs@odoo.com>

Flashing the SD card
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
In some circumstances, the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box's micro SD Card may need to be
|
|
re-flashed to benefit from Odoo's latest :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` image update. This means
|
|
that the Odoo :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box software may need to be updated.
|
|
|
|
Upgrade from the IoT box home page
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
Go to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage by navigating to :menuselection:`IoT app -->
|
|
IoT Boxes` and clicking on the :guilabel:`IP address` of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box.
|
|
Then click on :guilabel:`Update` (next to the version number).
|
|
|
|
If a new version of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box image is available, an
|
|
:guilabel:`Upgrade to _xx.xx_` button will appear at the bottom of the page. Click this button to
|
|
upgrade the unit and the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box will then flash itself to the new
|
|
version. All of the previous configurations will be saved.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
This process can take more than 30 minutes. Do not turn off or unplug the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of
|
|
Things)` box as it would leave it in an inconsistent state. This means that the :abbr:`IoT
|
|
(Internet of Things)` box will need to be re-flashed with a new image. See
|
|
:ref:`flash_sdcard/etcher`.

Upgrade with Etcher Software
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
A computer with a micro SD card reader/adapter is required in order to re-flash the micro SD
|
|
card.
|
|
|
|
Navigate to Balena's website and download `Etcher <https://www.balena.io/>`_. It's a free and
|
|
open-source utility used for burning image files onto drives. Click to `download
|
|
<https://www.balena.io/etcher#download-etcher>`_. Install and launch the program on the computer.
|
|
|
|
Then download the version-specific :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` image from `nightly
|
|
<http://nightly.odoo.com/master/iotbox/>`_.
|
|
|
|
The following are image versions on the `nightly <http://nightly.odoo.com/master/iotbox/>`_ website
|
|
with their corresponding Odoo database version:
|
|
|
|
- Odoo V16 --> iotbox-latest.zip
|
|
- Odoo V15 --> iotboxv21_10.zip
|
|
- Odoo V14 --> iotboxv21_04.zip
|
|
- Odoo V13 --> iotboxv20_10.zip
|
|
|
|
The images should be downloaded and extracted to a convenient file location.
|
|
|
|
After this step is complete, insert the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box's micro SD card into
|
|
the computer or reader. Open *Etcher* and select :guilabel:`Flash from file`, then find and select
|
|
the image just downloaded and extracted. Next, select the drive the image should be burned to.
|
|
Lastly, click on :guilabel:`Flash` and wait for the process to finish.
