from USB

1- copy the installer file to the USB stick ( and plug it in )
2- log into the router ( default credential: ocnos // ocnos )
3- type: enable 
4- type: start-shell   , this is to go to the Linux shell
5- and change to super user, the command is :  su - // root  ( yes it is the default password ;-)
6- check the USB: lsblk   ( sdb1 or sdb2 )
7- create a directory /mnt/usb
8- mount the USB to the directory: mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb  ( more likely to be sdb1 )
9- exit ( twice ) to go back to OcNOS CLI
10- start the process:   ( this is just an example )
