Latest OpenWRT Nightly won't Sysupgrade
Tried two times to sysupgrade my Ubnt Powerbeam PBE-M5-400 using the following file.
aredn-2038-6fba065-ath79-ubnt_powerbeam-m5-xw-sysupgrade.bin

It went to the "Do not remove power during the update" page.  Eventually, both times it reverted back to 3.22.12.0.  No packages were installed and it was rebooted just prior to upgrading.  Device was connected direct to my local computer thru a dumb switch. 

I believe I'm using the correct file based on the notes.   The 3.22.12.0 version did say it was using the ( ar71xx) rocket-m-XW hardware type.  So based on the notes, I'm assuming the ath79 file referenced above will work? 

Any suggestions or comments?

The Fix
Bob, it looks like a fix for Powerbeam issues was submitted and approved for tonight's nightly build.  Give it a shot tomorrow!

NB 2045: Upgraded a PBE-M5-400 and a LHG-5HP-XL

Edited:

Bob: I had the same issue with NB 2038.

All: The PBE-M5-400 no longer uses a rocket image, it has it own image now.

PBE-Won't Upgradt nightly
Chuck,
I actually read the notes for once and was aware of the separate image.  Tried that as listed in my original comments, but no go.  Orv has indicated that a fix on the latest nightly has been done, I'll give that a try in the next day or so.
Thanks

Success again
Did another of my PBE-M5-400 ISO remotely to the node on my roof via my switch.  Worked well.
