Install SwOS on RouterOS

Wed Dec 27, 2017 5:01 pm

How do I install SwOS on a CRS326-24G-2S+ that has RouterOS installed?

I have downloaded the swos-css326-2.7.bin file, but I have no idea what to do with it.
RouterOS does not seem to detect the file on boot like it does RouterOS NKP-files.

So how do I do this? Can I do it remotely? Do I have to use NetInstall?

Device already have RouterOS and SwOS, from RouterOS you can boot SwOS by typing in terminal:
/system routerboard settings set boot-os=swos
SwOS manual

It worked nicely. I even found the option in the System -> Routerboard -> Settings menu of WinBox in case someone don't like to use the terminal.

But yes, please add that information to the manual page.

It is documented here: https://i.mt.lv/routerboard/files/CRS32 ... S-qgv3.pdf.
And printed version of this document should have been shipped along with your router (included in the box).
