Press ENTER. All isicom RPM modules will be listed. Decide
which of these files you want to delete. Then type rpm -e

Warning About the Flashing of Terminal
Adapter Ports
New versions of firmware for the TA ports on the ISIHI or ISIHP card
are issued from time to time. When new TA-port firmware is issued,
that code must be "flashed" into the ISIHP/ISIHI card. If the
"Flashpro" program is used to flash new firmware versions, the user
should flash odd-numbered TA ports only.
For each odd-numbered port selected, the program will flash an odd/
even pair of ports (that is, both B-channels of the ISDN connection are
flashed on a single command). So, when COM3 is selected to be
flashed, COM4 will also be flashed. There is no need to flash the even
numbered ports separately. In fact, attempting to flash odd and even
TA ports separately will result in damage to the software that can be
repaired only by sending the ISI card back to MultiTech for repairs.
The correct flashing procedure is presented below.
