NOTE: This upgrade procedure wipes out eMMC flash storage(/dev/mmcblk0) completely. Earlier partitions are lost.
Perform following steps to flash New Turris Omnia with RDKB image.
Hold down the reset button (backside, bottom centre) and plug in the power cord. Wait until the fourth LED lights up (green), then release (before the 5th LED lights up). Please check here to see more detail on rescue modes.
Create partitions for additional rootfs and nvram.
...
Then, reboot the system.

The partition table has been altered.
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Re-reading the partition table failed.: Device or resource busy
The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at the next reboot or after you run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8).

During 4-led upgrade procedure, following things are done:
...
RDK firmware upgrade with XConf server: Firmware upgrade through XCONF server - Turris-Omnia - User Manual - 2020 - M6
Copy zImage , dtb file and rootfs files(not *dbg* rootfs file) from PC or VM to /tmp/ directory of Turris Omnia which is running runs RDK Image.
For example
