This will -probably- work this time, but for certain SlimServer
releases it won't.  There are some SlimServer features and
functionality that are intimately connected with the firmware.

For example, you would probably get very strange behaviour if you tried
using pre-6.5 firmware with SS 6.5+.

This is the reason why - there are times when you simply can't
downgrade because the SlimServer is largely incompatible.
