wbzhong Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Power PMAC saves upto 5 latest projects on its flash (usrflash.1 to usrflash.5). It loads usrflash.1 upon power on. Is there any command to load other projeccts after power on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve.milici Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 This is done in the “Backup Restore” window, under the “Delta Tau” menu. See the description in the “Power PMAC IDE” manual in the section “Backup Restore”. It is an option of the “Restore” button (Restore page third option). Note that PMAC loads “usrflash” on power up. The usrflash.1 was the last “save”d project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Hotchkiss Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 From the “Backup Restore” window, "Restore" is the second option on the left. Then "Project from Power PMAC usrflash memory" is the third option on the right. Then scroll down to select usrflash.1. You may need to expand the window to hit the "Proceed" button.

wbzhong Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 Thanks Steve and Eric. But can you advise how to implement the restore project command using SSH command? We would like to change it on the fly without using the IDE, if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve.milici Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 In Linux, you would simply copy all the files from “/opt/ppmac/usrflash.x” to “/opt/ppmac/usrflash” then reboot the CPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Anikstein Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Just as a note, /opt/ is write-protected by default. You may also need to issue one of: mount -o remount,rw /opt mount -o remount,rw /opt/vfat **May be necessary on Quad Core systems If you do, you would also want to re-set it as write protected after: mount -o remount,ro /opt mount -o remount,ro /opt/vfat **May be necessary on Quad Core systems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
