Hello,


I have TP-LINK TL-WR842N-V3 running OpenWrt 18.06 with ar71xx and I want to 
migrate to  OpenWrt 19.07 with ath79.



In the list of known issues it is written, that "Sysupgrade from ar71xx to 
ath79 and vice versa is not officially supported, a full manual reinstall is 
recommended...".



I don't understand the meaning of "full manual reinstall", but I thing, that 
instead of upgrading the firmware via web interface with image 
"openwrt-19.07.0-ath79-generic-tplink_tl-wr842n-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" 
(size about 4 MB), it is recommended the upgrading via bootloader + TFTP with 
image "openwrt-19.07.0-ath79-generic-tplink_tl-wr842n-v3-squashfs-factory.bin" 
(size about 16 MB).



I am right or does the "full manual reinstall" means another special procedure?



Thank you



Best regards



Ondřej Pumr
