Can I Install 20190621 on my Classic Via USB?
« on: July 03, 2019, 06:33:39 pm »
Hi

Can I Install 20190621 on my Classic Via USB?

On https://pilotaware.lode.co.uk/ I can just see downloads for SD cards.  Does the image work with USB or am I stuck with the old version?

Any assistance is much appreciated! ;-)

Hi Lee

I have completed steps 1-13, but it looks like my Paw unit is not booting from my SD card automatically as per the Manual Install Update method

https://pilotaware.com/knowledge-base/manual-software-update/

Plugging the device into a monitor I can see that the only option being presented is the Restore Option (Shift) and then it boots straight in to the current OS.

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated?


Thanks


M

OK, a bit of googling I have sorted it.

I did not know that the RPi had it's own onboard mini SD slot. A slight minor detail there!!  :-\

It's booting away now..

Is there anyway to "export" the configuration settings so you can reimport them onto the new install?

I have updated 3 units to latest software and use paper and pencil to record settings from old software then quick to input into new software. Plus you have a record incase something happens to installed micro SD card.

From this release onwards (20190621), a full install can be done, without losing the settings.
But you have to get to this point first!
