I've got some serious problem.
I got a second handy RB112 and just downgraded from RouterOS 5.4 to 2.9.51 via netinstall.
It worked, but I've got this message in serial terminal:
Code: Select all
ERROR: installation of routeros-rb500-2.9.51 failed: broken package
While updating, the software-id is XXXX-XXXX, from terminal and netinstall tool also. After reboot, it changed to XXXX-YYY, but the key remained the same. Of course, these don't match to each other, so RouterOS says, I've got less then 24H to get a proper license.
Because I DO have a proper license, but the software-id is changing after netinstall every time, to XXXX-YYY.
What can I do?
Mod: according to this, this issue about the 7 vs. 8 symbol ID. 2.9.51 only support 7 symbol ID. Is there any way, to convert my key back to 7 symbol ID? Just as 7 symbol keys were converted to 8 symbol.
Mod2: managed to recover, from flash backup
Thx
