Efika SmartFirmware 1.3 20070122 Update

Just found a OpenFirmware update for the Efika5k2 board with version number 1.3 and build on 2007-01-22 here. Normaly your board should have this build date (20070122), but there is also a 1.3 version with this build date: 20061107.

To check which version you have you have to enter the following on the openfirmware:

1) cd /
2) cd /openprom
3) .properties
4) look at the build-on value

To install the new version you have to get the file and enter the following like described on the site:

1) Put the extracted file onto a USB-Stick and insert it into the Efika PPC
2) Type on the openfirmware promt "boot scsi:0 update_e_20070122"
