Looking at my router I see everything os working fine. How much space do you have available in /var/log? > I am about to upgrade to the release version 2.1.0, and I was wondering if > there is a way to upgrade and keep the current configuration other than > finding out what files I have modified, save them manually, upgrade the > packages, and restore the saved files (hoping configuration settings remain > valid for all packages from one version to another). First of all - given your problem with logrotation a clean setup may be a better solution... Anyway let's look at changelog what has changed, but be aware you'll get a complete unsupported setup. kernel applied mremap patch (security fix) -> just replace "linux" on your boot media initrd updated busybox to version 1.00-pre8 -> just replace it on your boot media root corrected some file permissions updated root.help changed edit so a desired editor emulation can be set in /etc/profile also removed some old edit scripts -> don't really needed, just done for cleanup etc corrected some file permissions added a line in /etc/profile to set the desired editor emulation -> you don't need that also shorewall updated to version 1.4.10c dropbear solved a small (cosmetic) bug in /etc/init.d/dropbear -> if you don't need an update for shorewall you can go without it. modules corrected the modules repository url -> a minor correction ppp, pppoe updated to ppp-2.4.2 patched for pppoa support (plugin available separately) If you don't use ppp/pppoe forget about it. The changes from rc2 has been small as you can see. I agree some docs about upgrading should be added to the Guides.
