Pace 56 Solo Amiga Upgrade Utility - V2.0 update
================================================
This is an updated version of the upgrade program - it does *not* include
a new version of the firmware (V2.04 is currently the latest firmware
version).
Therefore, to run this program, you will first need a copy of the
full firmware upgrade archive, available at
http://www.nanunanu.org/~oliver/soloup/
Simply copy the included SoloUp program over the old version of the
program, and then you will be able to use it.
Why use the new version? Well, it contains a number of improvements
(detailed below) with the main aim of making the upgrader easier to
use and more reliable. The new version will be included with the next
firmware version that Pace release (V2.05 probably), but I have released
it separately for those of you who have not yet flashed to V2.04 or need
to reflash your Solo.
Changes
-------
- New improved user interface
- Various settings, including the serial settings, are now remembered
(saved on exit, loaded on startup)
- The current firmware version of your Solo is now displayed before and
after the upgrade
- Can now "repair" your Solo (in most cases) in the unlikely event that
the upgrader fails while flashing the new firmware (having left your
Solo in a seemingly dead state)
- The upgrade process is now performed by a separate task, run at a
higher priority - will prevent Executive from interfering and will
maybe decrease the risk of errors, especially for the internal serial
port
- Name and location of the log file can now be chosen
- Log files are now appended to instead of being overwritten
- More detailed info logged for any errors that occur
- Logging forced on when upgrading the firmware
- Log file is no longer kept open during the upgrade process
