Re: [Cooker] Re: Upgrading cooker......
I'm sure with some research I could but I really don't have time to do this! I just want to use the OS and upgrade it _easily_ when required. Anyway still don't think that anyone told me what files to download or if it's possible to do a network upgrade without downloading?
