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.

All right.. so even IF there should be an error that can only be fixed by un/dis-mounting the filesystem, now the firmware can do it too for basically Linux inept people... (like myself, but only because of ignorance, not stupidity).
Just when my OS4 is at 91.5% resyncing... Now I can do it all over again for OS6 ;)
One teeny tiny thing that's holding me back though... what in case I shoud want to revert back to OS4?
I know of the link with the 4.2.26 image, but it says "you will likely need to do a USB Boot Recovery followed by a factory default to get a working system again."
What is a USB Boot recovery?
And will this OS4 reverting package revert *any* OS6 package that's installed? Or just the 6.1.7 that's mentioned in the beginning of this thread?
