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.

So I'm ready to take the plunge into attempting the BIOS Upgrade. I have a total three ReadyNAS's. My primary Pro unit is still running RAIDiator 4.2.23; I've already upgraded that one to BIOS v2.0 (easy day!). However I have an old Ultra 4 and another Pro that are both running OS6 v6.0.8. Anyone willing to type out some detailed instructions (or present a preexisting link) on how to do it from the command prompt or whatever would be very much appeciated! I've already tried this (viewtopic.php?f=35&t=29284&hilit=Pro+CPU&start=195#p399077), but no joy. . .
Thanks in advance!
