0.19.0 - your own control server, and a card you can write

vpnstorage

Tailscale is convenient, and it is somebody else's control server. If you run your own, Headscale or Ionscale, point the device at it instead. One field in the VPN settings: the control server URL, and a port if it needs one. The rest works the same.

Two smaller things in the same few days:

  • on rev 3.x boards the microSD card is writable, so images can be uploaded and deleted from the console. The code was always there but switched off, because the older chip revision times out on SD writes. Rev 3.x handles it, verified on hardware. Pre-3.0 boards stay read-only.
  • the target now sees the monitor as ESP-KVM, rather than under the capture chip's Toshiba name.

The NANO and Guition builds were also switched to pre-3.0 silicon by default, because the units a contributor actually tested turned out to be pre-3.0 and the previous images would not boot on them.
