    Once you upgrade a S10 to firmware 7.x a downgrade is (as far as i know) not possible.

    Thank you for your reply.

    What I have done is logged the MiniRom into the FTP as a different user whose home folder contains the v7.1 wnos and boot files.

    Seems to be happy with that.

    A bit annoying how I have 2 out of 30 on a different version, but that’s my own fault for not testing 6.5 properly before upgrading to 7.1.

    Thank you for your help.

    Ok, another query.

    I have decided that WTOS 6.5 is suitable, but unfortunately I have two terminals which have updated to WTOS 7.x.

    So the FTP/WNOS folder has the boot and wnos files for 6.5, but now the two terminals boot into a MiniRom saying NetBoot failed.

    Is there a solution to get these two clients running 6.5? Or at the very least, point specifically these two clients to another folder containing the right boot files?

    Everything is configured via DHCP so I have a feeling we might be stuck 😐

    Ok so that has worked.

    And it looks as though 6.5 may achieve what I want anyway.

    One more query:

    On a test client which I have updated successfully now to v 7.1, I notice that it has lost the Terminal name for some reason. I assume it’s because of the netboot process.

    Is this avoidable?

    We actually configured all of the terminals with a terminal name which contains the name of the printer they should connect to when logging in so we need to keep the configured names if possible.

    I think I’ve missed a step. I believe I need to upgrade to 6.5 first. I will do this first.
