Eight how-to recipes and a FAQ page with a list of its questions, from the README, the milestone documents and the Apps' source. The guide templates become generic (the parent section gives the eyebrow, title and pager).

- Get the update file. On the Downloads page, take the
.otafile of the release you want:roro9stack-<version>.ota. Every release has one. - Copy it to
/updateson the SD card, from a computer. If the folder is not there, create it. (With the Cardputer on USB, a developer can also send it withscripts/sd_put.sh; see the README.) - Put the card in the Cardputer. Open Settings → Firmware. Under On the SD card the file is listed. If it says
No .ota files in /updates, the name or the folder is wrong. - Press Enter on the file, then Install. The device checks the signature and the contents before it writes anything, installs, and restarts. It waits up to 60 seconds if you are typing.
- After the restart the new firmware is on Probation: if it crashes or cannot get Wi-Fi back within 3 minutes, the device goes back to the previous version by itself and says so.
You can also open the file in the Storage App: it shows the version and whether the file would install, then Enter installs it. A file that is not signed with the project's key is refused, and nothing changes.
