Title: Idirect 3100 Rootfs Image file
Post by dapsyra on Apr 7^th, 2010 at 11:42pm

Can someone please point me in a direction where I can download the Rootfs.img for Idirect 3100series netmodem.

Better still, can someone show me how to extract the Rootfs image from a fully functional Idirect 3100 netmodem.

I accidentally deleted the Rootfs folder in redboot using

fis delete Rootfs

Now I need the image to flash back into the folder after recreating it.

Any asistance will be greatly appreciated.

If you are determined to engage this (and if I am understanding you correctly), it sounds like you are looking for the zimage file found in the cumulative update pkg. �The file is located in the NMS image sets or in the remote software package provided by your Hub Operator. �*When you track it down, confirm that it is the cumulative update pkg for the iDS version you are using. �

Unzipping that cumulative update file can easily be done from any RHEL OS (NMS, etc). �

I am not going to coach you beyond this point. �It is recommended that you get ahold of the TAC CSE or a compentent iDirect authority to ensure that you install that file correctly.

Thank you for your reply.

I am not looking for the zImage file. I already have it. The zImage file is used to recreate the Linux folder. I need to recreate the Rootfs folder instead.

I have already recreated the Rootfs folder in Redboot, now I need the content of that folder which I believe is contained in a file called rootfs.img

Doubtful you will get much help here. I would go to iDirect for this if you have iSupport.
