I would use "updatefile", but if you prefer "au_file" (and nobody
else comes up with comments or better suggestions) that's fine with
me, too.

Actually that would prebably be wanted, as the  end  user  would  see
that  the system was powered on [and actually we don't really have to
care much, as the TRAB board has reached EOL officially].
