Flash instruction using sysupgrade image:

1. Prepare TFTP server with IP address 192.168.0.10 and put sysupgrade
   image to TFTP directory
2. Connect PC to "GE0/PoE" port on SA-W2
3. Power on SA-W2, interrupt count-down by Esc and enter to bootloader
   CLI
4. Set IP address of the device

   address 192.168.0.1

5. Download sysupgrade image and flash to storage

   tftpload 192.168.0.10 <image name>
   firmwrite

   example:

   #tftpload 192.168.0.10 openwrt-mvebu-cortexa9-iij_sa-w2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   Loading openwrt-mvebu-cortexa9-iij_sa-w2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   loaded 8127268 byte(s)
   #firmwrite

   Erasing FLASH block 156 Done 0x009c0000.
   Programming FLASH. Done.
   Verifying FLASH. No Errors found.

6. Check the flashed firmware

   firmcheck

   example:

   #firmcheck
   [Normal firmware]
   ident: 'SEIL2015'
   copyright: 'ARM OpenWrt Linux-5.15.93'
   version format: 1
   version major: 9
   version minor: 99
   version release: 'r22060+36-5163bb5e54'
   body size: 3578524
   checksum: 0x8a083cb8

   [Rescue firmware]
   ident: 'SEIL2015'
   copyright: 'Copyright (c) 2017 Internet Initiative Japan Inc. All rights reserved.'
   version format: 1
   version major: 3
   version minor: 70
   version release: 'Release'
   body size: 10152458
   checksum: 0x8f9518c2

7. Boot with the flashed firmware

   boot

Note:

- The bootloader on this device is not U-Boot and it's environment space
  ("bootloader-env") has no compatibility with U-Boot tools.

- eth1 is connected to port6 of 88E6172 switch, but multi-cpu port can't
  be handled on Linux Kernel and not defined.

- Powering by PoE hasn't been tested yet.

- This device has 2x OS images on flash and they can be switched by
  setting "BOOTDEV" variable on bootloader CLI.
  That variable supports the following values:

  - "flash" : primary image on flash ("firmware")
  - "rescue": secondary image on flash ("rescue")
  - "usb"   : usb storage (broken?)
  - "lan0/1": network

  command to set:

  set BOOTDEV=<dev>

  example:

    set BOOTDEV=rescue

  This commit also supports booting from secondary partition.

- To execute initramfs image on bootloader CLI, use "go" command.
  ("go" command is not listed on the output of "help", but available)

  example (download and execute):

    address 192.168.0.1
    tftpload 192.168.0.10 openwrt-mvebu-cortexa9-iij_sa-w2-initramfs-kernel.bin
    go
