The AlphaCom software is uploaded and installed by software packages in AlphaWeb. A software package is compressed file with files to update on the target.

Some AlphaCom software packages will depend on the Board Support Package which includes the linux kernel, linux libraries etc. The main version (i.e the linux kernel) of the Board Support Package is only upgradable through a FLASH image process. However a Board Support Package can be patched with a new library etc.

Software Packages

Up until and including package AlphaSys 10.43 all AMC software releated files, AlphaWeb, rmd, m100d and system patches was included in on package file. From AlphaSys 10.44 the files are splitted into several packages. A improved packages compability system is also added from package AlphaSys 10.44

Package Dependencies

Each package will have a dependency on the installed Board Support Package on the target, and in some cases also from the previously installed AlphaSys version. From AlphaSys version 10.44 these dependencies will be stored inside the packages, and AlphaWeb will test dependencies before allowing to install the package on the target.
