Setup guide

Notes
If a package is marked for uninstallation, but it is required for another (dependent) package, then the
marked package cannot be uninstalled. You should uninstall the dependent package too. For the list
of package dependencies see the 'Software Package List; section below. The system package will
not be uninstalled even if marked for uninstallation.
Example
Suppose we need to uninstall security package from the router:
[admin@Wandy] system package> print
Flags: I - invalid
# NAME VERSION BUILD-TIME UNINSTALL
0 system 2.8beta8 oct/21/2003 13:27:59 no

upload relevant packages to your router via ftp. Then you need to issue /system package
