did you read the FAQ at www.parisc-linux.org?
I believe I read everything pertaining to the firmware. What I did not know was the mechanics
of the update. I'm not complaining, there's just assumptions people make that know these systems better than I do.

Yes. You can also: o dd the upgrade LIF image to a spare HD and boot it there. (715 does have 2 HD bays) o setup bootp to feed the upgrade LIF image to the 715. see previous email to parisc-linux mailing list on how so setup bootp. (parisc-linux mail archive is at lists.parisc-linux.org)

Bootp I can do also. Thanks!
