Updating from Release 20191008

[Admin]

Mine also went off-line when I tried it. I think it might have overwritten the Wifi configuration. 

I'll try and sort it out next time I'm back in Guildford.

Hi Paul
Deffo would have list wifi config
If you tell me exactly the steps you go through
I will capture that into the full OS download
Thx

Can't remember how I put in the static IP address but I think it sort of standard.

Hi All,
Have noticed that my system has not updated, so tried to access to update.....probably a simple answer is the OGN login “pi” and the password what I changed it too on install ? It now does not recognise my original password and came up with incorrect login? Or does the new updates it does automatically receive before the last update change the password?
I tried to update using the download on to a new SD card but on upload it keeps stopping at 21mb and crashing?

Any help gratefully received!

Hi Neil,

Yes, the default OGN login is still ‘pi’ and Yes, earlier updates could have reset the password. Have you tried the ‘default’ password 12345678 ?

If that doesn’t work you do need to do a fresh install. No idea why your new upload is crashing at 21Mb though, sorry. Possibly corrupted during download / transfer or a faulty card? If so, you need to do a Full Overwrite reformat of the card and try again or try another card. (Make sure it’s formatted as FAT32.) Hope this helps.

Regards

Peter

Thanks Peter,

All up and running now a new SD card did the trick, I did not realise  they were so fussy !

Hi Peter
I meant to mention, when you had an issue earlier - was it related to the station you werre running a WiFi link ?

of course this would have been lost with a full install
I am going to try to merge PaulS WiFi additions, and save status, so that a reinstall would maintain this

Thx

Morecambe is hard wired to a switch so no WiFi issues, the new one that will eventually be EGNL is WiFi as no land line is available.

PWKingstone successfully updated late last night. The previous discussion regarding default passwords was very useful in avoiding a predictable “gotcha”.

PW Shobdon next on the list, either for myself or Tom.

Thx,

PWEgerton updated.

I have a USB keyboard and a recycled monitor attached to the OGN-R RP. You can buy an HDMI to VGA adaptor for pence.

It's easier to do the update with as you can then see when the update finishes and the reboot happens as you are not kicked off your remote connection.
