File name is '...generic.fw ' so I am assuming it works for all versions  Wink

Tried it but it said something about processor not supported. Kind of like when you try to upgrade with the wrong firmware.....which, as much as I hate to say it, I've been guilty of more times than I'd like to admit Rolleyes

Guess it is x86 generic then... oh well..worth a try... thanks for feedback.

Generic will work for all version - 32 bits, 64 bits and ARMv7. I have tested this on 64 bits so it should work for you also?

Has @mkysimes  got a Pi4 ?  is snakeoil using 32 bit for Pi4 or 64 bit and ARMv8 ?

Tried it numerous times. Here's a couple of screenshots.

D'oh.. Must be a bug with the machine name returned by RPi4.

Can you rename the word generic to armv7l. That should make it work again. Will also create an issue to fix the generic not working on RPi4 builds.

@mkysimes  does the above work for you now ?? Smile

I will definitely try that, can't at the moment. I'll keep y'all posted once I get a spare second to try.
