Peter,

Have you looked into flashrd?

http://nmedia.net/flashrd
https://github.com/yellowman/flashrd/

See the section in the FAQ on how to upgrade a running system:

http://www.nmedia.net/flashrd/flashrd-faq.html

It’s a matter of copying over three files and re-booting. I’ve done remote
upgrades many times, but have not scripted the process.

Hope this helps.
