Technical information

After the image download process is completed, eBox-2300 will load the Windows CE image it
just received. Again, be patient… It may take a few moments for the image to come up.
When the Windows CE screen is displayed on eBox-2300, it’s an indication the booting process
is completed.

Deploy the CE 6.0 OS Image to the eBox-2300
In the previous step, when the CE 6.0 image is downloaded and launched on the eBox-2300, it’s
being loaded to the system RAM directly and is not saved to the local storage. To deploy a CE
6.0 OS image onto eBox-2300’s local storage, you need to manual copy the OS image, NK.BIN,
to eBox-2300’s local IDE bootable flash storage.
There are multiple methods to copy the CE 6.0 image to the eBox-2300’s local storage.
1. Use a USB bootable flash storage.
eBox-2300 can be set to boot from USB bootable storage device. Refer to Appendix E
for setup information.
Using a USB bootable flash storage, copy the CE 6.0 OS image file, NK.bin, from
\WinCE600\OSDesigns\eBox2300\eBox2300\RelDir\ICOP_Vortex86_60CS_x86_Relea
se directory to the USB bootable flash storage. Boot eBox-2300 with the USB bootable
flash storage and copy the NK.bin file to eBox-2300 IDE flash storage’s root directory
(over written the existing NK.bin file).
2. While running a CE 6.0 image downloaded from the Platform Builder development
station, copy CE 6.0 OS image file (NK.bin) from a shared network file folder to the
“Hard Disk” folder.
3. Remove the EmbedDisk (IDE bootable flash storage) from eBox-2300 and copy the
image file (NK.bin) using hardware setup capable of copying file to IDE storage device.
(This method requires disassembling the device and is not recommended.)
