Update xnet software on cRIO 9045

I need to update the software version of xnet on my cRIO to match the version on my computer.  I have downloaded the new driver to my computer, I have connected with Max and attempted Add/Remove Software.  How do I get the new version to show up in the Update list?

I believe that you are using the Linux RT System Image ipkg-based installation.

The driver versions are tied to the System Image used. You can't upgrade only one of the drivers. You must upgrade the entire system image, and all the drivers used. You must upgrade all the drivers on the Windows host as well.

Thank you.  I did some searching and learned about the System Image.  I updated my host, updated the cRIO firmware, then learned how to update the Base image. All is working now.
