Note
The mechanism for installing the bootloader in QSPI flash has changed. The new image can therefore only be installed with the new recovery package scripts. The old recovery package may fail to install the new bootloader.
The new recovery scripts may also be used with the previous image release, but the bootloader will not be downgraded. This may cause compatibility problems.
