Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2012 3:31 pm Post subject: KORG KRONOS – OS. 1.6.0 - PROCEDURE (QUICK and GOOD)! |
|
|
1. Using a computer, download the update from the Korg website: www.korg.com/kronos. The update will be in compressed, zip format.
2. Open the ZIP file (the downloaded file is called KRONOS_Update_1_6_0).
3. Copy the update files (use USB Flash Drive - only FAT32):
- mnt (Folder)
- KRONOS_Update_1_6_0.taz.gz (ZIP)
- DisplayUpdaterMessage (File)
- install.info (File)
- md5sum (File)
- posttar.sh (File)
- pretar.sh (File)
4. Disconnect all USB devices from the KRONOS.
Other USB devices may interfere with the update process.
5. Go to the Global mode, P0– Basic Setup page.
6. Open the menu, and select the command “Update System Software”.
A prompt will appear on the screen: “Connect the Software Update media, and press OK”.
7. Connect the USB storage device containing the update files.
8. Press the OK button.
A new message will appear: “Are you sure?”
9. Press the OK button.
A prompts will appear on the screen:
- Update System: “Searching for updater files”
- Update System: “Found valid updater source. Preparing to install…”
10. Progress bar will appear on the screen, noting that the system is being updated.
A new messages will appear:
- Updater Version: 1.6.0
- Installing files…
- Finalizing changes
- Finishing installation…
While the system is being updated (1-2 minutes), do not touch the Kronos switches, and never turn off the power. If the power is accidentally turned off while the system is being loaded, the KRONOS may become inoperable. If this occurs, using the Restore DVDs may be required; please contact your local Korg distributor.
11. When the update is complete, a new message will appear:
- “Kronos system version 1.6.0 update complete. Please restart the system”.
12. Turn off the KRONOS, and then disconnect the USB storage device.
13. Wait approximately ten seconds, and then turn the power on again.

Thanks for this. I hadn't bothered to go to 1.5, because I was waiting for the editor, so this saved me a lot of head-scratching! |

Smooth install as well, no user data loss, everything was quick and fine.
But I've kept the USB stick in place when rebooting after the upgrade, as I did with 1.5, and it was ok... _________________ Korg MS-20 Kit, Korg MS-20 mini, Korg KingKorg, Korg Volca Series (Beats, Bass, Keys), Korg Kronos 61, Korg X50, Korg Triton Extreme 76 (96MB RAM, MOSS), Korg MS2000B, Korg monotron series (classic, duo, delay), Korg monotribe, Kawai K5000W, Nord Stage 88, Nord Electro 2, Nord Modular G2X, Nord Lead 3, Novation X-Station, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Air

It was smooth for me. I'm on Windows 7 64 bit. I downloaded the zip file. Did an extract all, put the extracted folder with files on a usb stick. Put the USB stick in the Kronos and updated from there. No problem. _________________ Reagan

thanks for hangin in with me....I have formatted to FAT 32
and still get "source device not found" once i've gone to Global mode/upate software version, etc..... even though the Kronos sees the flash drive and can load other files off of it.
Once i have downloaded 1.6..I drag the whole folder into the flash drive.
Is that right or am I supposed to do something before that?
thanks again |
