From 1.2-RC2 to RC3 all went fine. Duration about 20 minutes. Good Stuff ;-)

Platform: embedded on VIA C3 256MB RAM / 1 GB CF

It might be that memory size has impact on available space for upgrade. Soekris has only 128MB.

I will test upgrade via console as well

While unpacking the archive the fs limit will be reached. After having applied a “larger” embedded image to the cf, updates will work

I don’t recall exactly when it was added, it’s been a few months I believe.

Embedded users need to use the Embedded upgrade file available from:
