18.3.2 new features / improvements
- Core: on D2nw1,Isp1, 2Big1 and 5Big1, button daemon implements rightly the power switch behaviour. On short pressing (less than 5 second) a reboot is initiated and a power-off on a longer pressing (more detail : https://plugout.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&p=26417#p26441) The feature do not yet fully tested on 2big1 and 2dnw1. So feedbacks are therefore welcome on these platforms
- Core: added a rescue mode (shell access on the SSH server) if the firmware fails to mount the system partition on nas booting
- Core: added a fan daemon on nwsp max(more detail: https://plugout.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3314)
- Core: run a fs check on the firmware system partition on nas booting after reaching a boot count (you can set it from the main system setup menu : other settings tab)
