Update Pre-Built Files

[Ryan-Goldstein]

The latest release, v1.0.2, contains a somewhat outdated OpenWRT version (22.03.3) compared to the latest (23.05.0). Would be great if the pre-built files could use this latest version!

As a intermediate solution, before Daniel updates his release: you can clone Daniel's github repo and change the build_installer.sh script to use 23.05 and build by yourself. The build_installer.shscript builds both the ubi initramfs recovery installer, the recovery instance and the normal sysupgrade image.

As far as I can see, the only changes needed are the branch name and PGP key (unattended PGP key from from https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/security/signatures ):

EDIT: I tested it, built the images and (just for testing purposes) updated the recovery image on my RT3200, and used that to flash my normal main/master snapshot image. Quite ok.

Now the recovery has 23.05.0:
