Subject: How to upgrade Cisco 675 with linux?
I upgraded mine(678) using minicom. Once the settings were correct in
minicom as, set by using root, I did
#minicom cisco (where cisco is the name of the configuration file)
Hit enter at the minicom screen and you should get the
cbos> prompt. Follow the instructions on power cycling the modem then

upload and configuration from here:

I did find that if you hold down ctrl+C before powering back up you are
more likely to get the correct prompt the first time.
