Hi! Last friday I upgraded my ALIX system from 6.0 to 6.2 using the PXE boot method. In previous years I used an internal FTP server to perform the upgrade, but for some reason this is not supported any more since a couple of releases. I mounted and published the ISO image using a raspberrypi and NGINX (HTTP method). During the install process I hit the following error 'unable to get a verified list of distribution sets'(*). I couldn't find much help from google but after some time I figured out that the install was looking for a file named index.txt, that is not included in the ISO. Maybe some of this information can be included to the install guide for those of us doing a local HTTP upgrade, and also it would be great to have the index.txt file included in the ISO. For the record, the kernel relinking (Relinking to create unique kernel...) took about 14 minutes in my ALIX board and it takes about 2.5 minutes the library reordering during the boot process.
Just my .02 cents.
J.
