rm2: 2.14.1.866 slow to load on first install compared to unpatched

[yduf]

Hello,

It is more information for others than anything else, because I thought at first that the patch wasn't working. see info below.

Regards,

Yves

__ Noticing that patch was available, I have upgraded my rm2 to 2.14.1.866. When applying latest patch, the rm screen flash, then get stuck on loading progress bar (at least one minute), to the point I thought it was not installing properly.

That why's I have done Ctrl-C and No (ie no permanent install), screen flash again, but I was still stuck on loading progress bar at some point.

Shuting down the system with shutdown now, restart the UI in a working mode.

While I was writting this, I waited long enough, and it happens to work. Just once patch is applied, system is really slow to load (compared to unpatched version).

I accepted the version, it reboots and then load with a normal amount of time.

Here are the output from the script, in ssh console:

Not really sure that it is the right place to post, but how did you upgrade to rm2 2.14.1.866 ?? I tried on mine but it is still stuck to 2.14.0.861. I than thought that I had to make an official upgrade to 2.14.1.866 and then applying the patch but there isn't any official 2.14.0.861 upgrade... I would like to understand the correct process. From what are we supposed to uipgrade ? an official version ? The last patched version ? Any help would be much appreciated ! :)

After each upgrade, I am disabling automatic updates. So to upgrade to 2.14.1.866, (or any latest version), I am just using Menu/Settings/General then Software version button then enable automatic update, and check for updates.

It has worked each time.

But I don't remenber the specific version I was updating from, 2.12.x or 2.13.x ?
