Feb 19 16:45:43 can you update the wiki page which is missing the instruction to create the dir? Feb 19 16:45:50 internal flash Feb 19 16:46:17 i havent touched the dir though Feb 19 16:46:22 ive only modded the password Feb 19 16:46:38 how? Feb 19 16:47:19 i backed up the thing with config.tar, modded the passwd file and uploaded it again Feb 19 16:47:43 ah, follow the instructions in the README instead Feb 19 16:47:53 that method you did is antiquated Feb 19 16:48:07 you got a url for the readme?
