Install xinetd and tftpd-hpa application in your local PC to setup tftp server by using below command
TFTP Server Installation Step

sudo apt-get install xinetd
sudo apt-get install tftpd-hpa


STEP 2:

Create a .tar file and place the image files.

...

  • zImage--4.14.22-r0-turris-20200521120313.bin
  • rdkb-generic-broadband-image_default_20200521120313.rootfs.tar.gz

tar -cvf <imagefile_name>.tar <path-of-rdkb*.rootfs.tar.gz> <path-of-zImage*.bin>

For Ex:
tarr -cvf rdkb-generic-broadband-image_default_20200521120313.tar /home/kaviya/tftp/rdkb-generic-broadband-image_default_20200521120313.rootfs.tar.gz /home/kaviya/tftp/zImage--4.14.22-r0-turris-20200521120313.bin


STEP 3:

Create checksum file for the upgrading image.
md5sum checksum creation

md5sum "<imagefile_name>.tar" > imagefile_name.txt
 
For Ex:
md5sum "rdkb-generic-broadband-image_default_20200521120313.tar" > rdkb-generic-broadband-image_default_20200521120313.txt

Create new folder for example "tftp" in your PC home directory and place the checksum file and upgrading image file (the .tar file generated).
