How can I verify what beta version is installed?

I upgraded my Pro 6 and used the R4toR6_latest-beta.bin linked from this page:

 

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Upgrading-from-4-2-x-direct-to-6-3-5-beta/td-p/...

 

The upgrade went smoothly and my Pro 6 is now running 6.5.0 as seen in the System/Overview page.

 

I do not see RC1 or RC2 on that page.

 

Since I want to be running the latest beta is there a way to check what beta I am on?

 

Thanks

If you download the logs you will see which one you are running in os_version.log

If you downloaded the R4toR6 image just now it should be RC2.

Just manually reinstall the version you want.

Thanks.

 

I did a reinstall with RC2 and accepted that as a solution but using your advice is better.

 

I do not know how to change the accepted solution or if that is even possible.

Not sure if you can see the option but you can mark a solution as not the solution and mark a different one as the solution. I have just done that for you.

 

Also initrd.log shows the firmware update history since the last factory default.
