Software Update: 10/9/2006
R15-100 : ??
R15-300 : ??
R15-500 : 10E8

-----
As of right now, I don't have the version numbers for the R15-100 or R15-300

Please do not post, I got it, I didn't get it posts...

This release is the first part of a two part update. This release was to update the Disk/HardDrive subsystem. The result of this update will stabalize crashes due to filesystem issues, and improve general performance of the system with regards to the filesystem.

As I have been doing with the HR20 releases... this time around 1 thread to discuss specific items about the release

I showed 10d4 until thurs. night, then while watchinga recorded show (NCIS), the program froze and the system just rebooted, then i finished watching ncis and went into the list (it was recording My Name is Earl) to start it from the beginning and it froze and rebooted and downloaded software 10d3???? It has been acting funny all weekend (10-5 throught today). Any one else had any problems as of late?

A longer release notes page

From what I was told, it was broken into two pieces to minimize the risk of such a large update.

Are we going to have to wait another 1-2 months for the 2nd half????

No, you shouldn't.
I know the 2nd half is well into it's testing phase

Any idea why this appears to be national all at once rather than a slow west to east release?

They need to get this update completely out there to all systems before they can even consider rolling out the next part.

Is there a way to force this or does everyone get it at the same time?

Your unit will get it automatically when it is available to you.
There is no need to try and force it.

Got mine in NC with a simple reset while fixing a stuck progress bar.

Would there be some reason that a force (02468) would not get the update?

Yes... If you box has not been authorized to receive the update, a 02468 will not download it.

OK, then what would cause a box to be authorized or not authorized?

I guess you didn't read the beginning post by Earl! Considering your reply!

I think the way it works is they "authorize" groups of boxes (historically by region). Once it's "authorized" you'll get it shortly (up to a couple days). Doing a force usually gets it to you sooner rather than later - provided you're "authorized".

I did force today and got the newest realease, weird this is that I didn't get the last realease. Ohwell...things are fairly stable so far, will see later this week how does with a slew of sl
