Hi kp, yes openvpn has not migrated first go, nor has TOR. I copied the configdb updated syslinux and put the new packages on. I had to extract and install new hardware firmwares. Unfortunately I am very busy at the moment and can't concentrate on these issues. I've looked for obvious problems - there seems to be a path issue with openvpn to certs. thanks for your interest, Marko On Saturday, 29 October 2016 7:34:34 PM AEDT kp kirchdoerfer wrote: > Hi Marko > > Am Dienstag, 25.

I have some problem with openvpn not starting. I will post another thread later when I get a chance to look at it.

Re: [leaf-user] Bering-uClibc-6.0.0 introduces the new major version of LEAF Bering-uClibc
I upgraded two Soekris boxen, a net4801 and net6501, to 6.0 On the net4801, I was using both a compact flash (boot) and an external usb thumb drive (mass storage) , /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 respectively. After the upgrade, these were swapped. Other than a little confusion on my part while I straightened this out, after the upgrade everything worked fine. Only had to edit leaf.cfg and syslinux.cfg, and change fstab for mounting the thumb drive. Without the usb thumb drive inserted, the interior CF flash reverted to /dev/sda1.

I just upgraded to 6. The update was easy and the system is super fast to reboot. Everything went very smooth.
