OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...
mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

Wake up Netgear. Time to get of your laurels and earn your crust - charge by all means, but fix (I'm sure you are doing this) and make V6.0 available to older gear (even at the cost of a reformat). Though it shouldn't be beyond the bounds of difficulty to make the new O/S see/use/support the existing ext4 file system - the linux kernel would have no issues (unless you removed it) and assuming the o/s partition is big enough (which from the os.bin file size it looks to be - V6 is 6MB smaller) and there is enough room to expand/install the kits (and if not, force a wipe)).

I agree 100% :slap:
