On the list of things to do, but very low priority.

I will be removing posts that talk about code security issues, weaknesses and strategy.

As of today (December 6) there are roughly 50 public Kiwis running v1.6xx and 120 running v1.7xx. I encourage everyone to update to v1.8xx as soon as possible. So far I've had to fix about 45 Kiwis manually.

v1.800 does not have the admin page reload problem. v1.800 fixes that problem. I want to state this so people don't get the wrong idea and start complaining to me (this happens all the time when inaccurate information is posted on the forum).

What you probably saw was the state of the sources in /root after a failed v1.8xx transition. When v1.7xx decides it needs to transition to v1.8xx a few things happen. Remember that it is running out of /usr/local/bin/kiwid and uses only the configuration files in /root/kiwi.config. So the state of the sources don't matter.

The sources in /root/Beagle_SDR_GPS are removed to make disk space in case the filesystem is full. Which is why we are in this mess to begin with. Then the new KiwiSDR repo is git cloned. Then a build of v1.8xx is attempted. If the build fails for any reason the source files will look like it is on v1.8xx. But if you cd; cd KiwiSDR; ms the log will show it still running on the v1.7xx out of /usr/local/bin/kiwid because the build never finished and installed the v1.8xx version. And if the Kiwi restarts same thing.
