19 hours ago19 hr So I got the email stating that OS14.4 is available and I started going through the checklist...backing up IOX and PG3, ensuring the correct FREEBSD is there, etc. Then I get to the line that says "REFLASH YOUR EISY USING OUR USB STICK". So I click on the link and it takes me to the page where I see that it will cost me $18 (that's not a big deal- except it will probably take at least a week to get to me) but it's 1) out of stock and 2) i also need a terminal and a keyboard and I have neither. So at this point, I am unsure how to proceed. While I am looking forward to the new capabilities of this new release, perhaps it wan't well thought out (like - let's make sure we have enough USB sticks in stock before we announce the release and how can people who have been using EISY headless perform the update). Any help would be appreciated.
18 hours ago18 hr I'm not sure how that email was structured but reflashing the eisy is not part of the upgrade process. It could be a last resort if your freebsd version is too old or crashed. Normally you just do the required backups and then click on "Update Packages" as indicated in the release announcement.
