[downgrade by 5565 to 5022]

I have changed the buildnumber to 5021.

 

Before

DiskStation login: root
Password:

BusyBox v1.16.1 (2015-01-07 14:56:44 CST) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

DiskStation> cd /etc.defaults/
DiskStation> vi VERSION
majorversion="5"
minorversion="1"
buildphase="hotfix"
buildnumber="5022"
smallfixnumber="0"
builddate="2015/01/07"
buildtime="14:15:27"
unique="synology_bromolow_3615xs"
extractsize=478408

After:

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

However when I reboot the file has reverted back to previous.

[downgrade by 5565 to 5022]

I'm having trouble downgrading.

 

This is what I've been doing so far:

 

1) try to install 5022

2) wait for it to fail and mention telnet
3) log in with root using 101-0101 as password
4) edit VERSION with vi, ensuring buildnumber is "5021"
5) :wq to save and quit
6) type reboot
7) reboot into install/update mode

However at this point the build number has reverted and when I try and install via Synology Assistant it tells me the current version is still 5565 and that I need to install a newer version.

What am I doing wrong that the build number reverts during the reboot?

you must change the minorversion="1".[/quote]

This is what I see in the VERSION file:

The minorversion is already set to 1 even before I change the buildnumber. I changed the buildnumber but it doesn't seem to commit so when I reboot it is back to the above.
