So all Squeezeboxes will be possible to load an old firmware version by putting the firmware files in the correct LMS directory and then do a firmware update, the difference is just that for Boom/Classic/Receiver/Transporter the firmware is distributed in the LMS installation package while for the Touch/Radio/Controller LMS retrieves the firmware in runtime from mysqueezebox.com if they aren't available in the LMS firmware update directory already. The issue people are worried about is that when you do a factory reset on a Touch(and maybe Radio) they will ask you to login/create a mysqueezebox.com user in the beginning, but it's possible to skip this dialog so it's not a big issue IMHO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96208 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
