+1 dead AC2 that ran 7.13+ww2 happily for a month,
Quite hard to believe. 7.13 was only released on dec 15th ???
Unless you are referring to beta version ?
Did you upgrade to stable already ?
... minimal free space became less although I didn't have anything configured to spend it, and one nice day it died, most probably to 0 bytes left on storage, and doesn't boot to working state anymore.
I would suggest to netinstall and start from a CLEAN config only having qcom-ac added as package and minimal needed config. Everything which you can offload to another device, move it away !
AC2 was already known for very tight storage space, this new feature with wave2 drivers made space even more restricted.
I can probably netinstall it to 7.13+wireless, but question remains: although 7.13+ww2 is doable on AC2, does Mikrotik see it as a sane thing to do?
Do you think they would have released that option if they didn't believe themselves it was sane to do ? Spend all that effort on making this option available ?
It's not only AC2, also cAP AC, cAP XL AC, wAP AC, ... quite a lot of devices getting a second chance in their lifecycle.
Economically maybe not the best decision from Mikrotik (they loose quite a bit of possible replacement sales) but from a user support standpoint simply brilliant !
My view...
