The installation of the new TOS 6 requires a new bootloader. Some products currently in stock are equipped with the bootloader for TOS 5, which is why they cannot be directly upgraded to TOS 6. You need to install TOS 5.1 first, and then update to TOS 6 from TOS 5.1. The update package for TOS 6 has already been released, and you can update at any time.

I am already on the TOS 6.0.229 on my F5-221 and all I have seen is that TM will release a version to allow this version to be updated to the current TOS 6 versions as there existed a problem with trying to update, however I have seen nothing regarding this patch version so can you point me in the right direction please.

So these famous last words still stand: "There will be available upgrade packages to allow TOS 6.0.229 to be upgraded to the official TOS 6 version."

And " should be in the next two weeks" then!? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

6.0.530 is the right update package for TOS 5.1.145 to 6.0.229.

Make no sense, I am already running TOS 6.0.229 and have tried several times to update but unsuccessfully,
Are you saying that I should try to update to 6.0.530?

Hello.What is the bios version of your system? Check whether the SN of the device meets the time specified in the update description.

no data was lost I had only to re-enter the super user name/password and perhaps set permissions of folders for the Plex server

Do you use docker containers?
Have you used smb shares? They were fine?
