New images based on 15.7.11

[franco]

Hello everyone,

it’s been quite a while since we’ve done this, but for the sake of consistency and progress we’ve made available new images based on the latest 15.7.11.

An obvious thing we’ve changed is that there are now only OpenSSL images available. If you do favour LibreSSL instead, you can simply select the firmware flavour from the “System: Settings: General” page and reissue a firmware upgrade.

As for nano images, we’ve had a longer stabilisation phase than anticipated. The images are now fully compatible with firmware upgrades, use a way better approach to memory file systems to be able to maximise RAM usage and will fit on any 4GB media that we tried or heard of while testing with our lovely community.

If you need to know more about the changes, please consult previous announcements since 15.7 here:

For more information on installation and hardware requirements please consult the following page:

Images can be downloaded from any of our mirrors given a few hours that it takes to synchronise them:
