Need better way to upgrade Marlin Hi, I just upgraded to Marlin 2.1 from 2.0 and it was all hell set loose. I had to literally go back and start from scratch with Configuration files as there were many things that never matched from the earlier version. This has happened during an earlier upgrade too! Wish we had a better way of upgrading the firmware without loosing any of the earlier data and neither have to start with everything from scratch! https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896494#msg-896494 Wed, 22 Jul 2026 06:16:36 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896510#msg-896510 Re: Need better way to upgrade Marlin https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896510#msg-896510 Roberts_Clif Firmware - Marlin Fri, 07 Feb 2025 15:37:25 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896507#msg-896507 Re: Need better way to upgrade Marlin https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896507#msg-896507 Dust Firmware - Marlin Fri, 07 Feb 2025 06:32:55 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896504#msg-896504 Re: Need better way to upgrade Marlin https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,896494,896504#msg-896504
