using the CLI...

1. upload the Check_Point_R75.40_Gaia.iso file or insert media into the firewall

2. mount the media

or

[Expert@chkpfw2]# mkdir /mnt/iso
[Expert@chkpfw2]# mount -o loop /var/tmp/Check_Point_R75.40_Gaia.iso /mnt/iso

3. verify backup status

cphaprob stat

4. uninstall something...

  The upgrade wrapper script will force us to chose a new product to install, so uninstall something simple.  I chose Performance Pack.
[Expert@chkpfw2]# rpm -e CPppak-R75.40-00

[Expert@chkpfw2]# patch add cd
