+        the <a href='http://nightly.openerp.com/trunk/posbox/'>latest image</a>. The upgrade
+        procedure is explained into to the <a href='/hw_proxy/static/doc/manual.pdf'>PosBox manual</a>
+        </p>
+        <p>
+        To upgrade the posbox, click on the upgrade button. The upgrade will take a few minutes. <b>Do not reboot</b> the PosBox during the upgrade.
