Abstract
In some examples, a processing unit can install a second driver to an installed-driver backing store on a non-volatile (nonV) memory, and replace a first driver in a driver store of the nonV memory with the second driver without replacing the first driver in the volatile memory with the second driver. The processing unit can, subsequently, determine that the second driver has been loaded into the volatile memory, and write, by the second driver loaded into the volatile memory, a driver-configuration entry in a configuration datastore. An example computing system can include the first driver in volatile memory, and the nonV memory. The nonV memory can include a driver-configuration file, a driver store holding a first copy of the second driver, and an installed-driver backing store holding a second copy of the second driver. Some examples can roll back failed installation operations.
