After a recent upgrade, SM fails to connect to any equipment.  The text below shows that 3 packages were not installed.  Is there a command to force the installation of these packages?  Is the only solution to flash a new sdcard with the latest download?

What does the "-y" do?

It's just a shortcut for yes, so that it doesn't ask you for confirmation.

Thanks, Jasem. All fixed. Flashed a couple additional SDcards and copied the profiles. Sounds simple but took almost a full day to wrestle it into submission.
