After a long time and some free time, I started to revive my feeder project. I had a raspberry pi setup a long time ago but the memory card broke and never got back into setting everything back up.
When I looked on the website, I see that all new images require a Pi3 and newer. My old one is a Pi2B.
I found an old image (v6) which works on my Pi2B without any issues. However, in my “feeder center” here on FlightAware, I get the message that the feeder has an outdated version installed.
Can I update PiAware to the lastet version? Do I have to? And if so, how? I would just download the image file and write it straight to the SD card or is there an easy way to do it on the device automatically?
Thanks

thanks a lot guys. I will try the latest release. Maybe the description can be updated that it works as well with RPi2B to avoid confusion and using old outdated software…
Thanks!
