Hi

Is this going to be 1.5.X ?

[ahenning]

It will be 2.0.0

A lot has changed, so it will be an initial beta and then we will activate the new features in quick follow up releases.

I'll spin this thread off into a post under general discussions.


update: soon

Hi Ram,

The initial v2 release is out if you would like to test. Any feedback would be much appreciated while we get ready for the 2.0.1 update. Thanks

We were wanting to run the V2 beta as a test on an Appliance 200. Being new to WANOS I was wanting the steps to upgrade the appliance to a new version. The steps I could find in the forums see to be either to upgrade a VM, USB or hard drive install.

Hi Chris,

There is not an update script yet for v2.0.0, partly because its a beta release. So far no obvious issues have been reported so if it stays like that, an update script will be available in two to three days. If you are planning to update, then we'll generate the new keys after the update, since they are different.

A clean install is also possible. I'll update a 200 appliance and post the steps required here. The simplest method will probably be to boot from a v2.0.0 USB drive, then run /etc/init.d/wanosd stop-all and copy the running image over with dd (dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda)

Let me test this first though and get back to you.

Excellent. Thanks for the prompt reply.

Hi Chris,

This method works:
/etc/init.d/wanosd stop-all
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda

Where sdb is the usb drive running version 2.0.0 and sda is the hdd running 1.4.1 (Perhaps just double check which is which with fdisk -l)

Update: the first update script will be for 2.0.1

Edit: Depending on feedback/stability
