- DietPi-Set_swapfile | Resolved an issue on Bookworm systems where zram swap space was not enabled automatically on boot due to missing syscall permissions. Many thanks to @magicfoxt-magicfox for reporting this issue: #6511
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where /etc/network/interfaces was created with missing key values if lines were previously manually removed. Defaults are now applied in this case. Many thanks to @huettenwirt for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/forum/t/ifup-error-due-to-faulty-etc-network-interfaces/17605
- DietPi-Software | TasmoAdmin: Resolved an issue on Bookworm systems with Nginx and Lighttpd webserver where login and logout did not work anymore as the rewrite directives pointed to a file which does not exist anymore since TasmoAdmin v3. Many thanks to @TBirth for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/forum/t/tasmoadmin-not-found-after-visiting-login-page/17632
- DietPi-Installer | Resolved an issue where building images for ARMv7 hardware was not possible on a ARMv8 host. Offered/accepted ARM hardware IDs are not based on the userland/OS architecture of the image instead of the CPU/kernel architecture returned via "uname -m". Many thanks to @dirkhh for reporting this issue: #6541
- DietPi-Globals | G_GET_NET: Resolved an issue where the default route was not detected correctly if learned via OPSF or other routing protocols which change the output field numbers of the "ip route" command. Many thanks to @owendelong for reporting this issue: #6561
- WiFi Hotspot | Add dietpi.txt setting and dietpi-config menu entry to toggle 802.11ac/WiFi 5 support - WiFi Hotspot | Add 5 GHz support and respective channel selection - DietPi-Config | Stop and restart hostapd and the DHCP server explicitly when applying changes with hotspot enabled/installed. One of the services might have failed e.g. due to invalid values, in which case they should be restarted to have corrected values taking effect. This means that "Apply" overrides the current "State" value, but this should be fine. - DietPi-Config | Mask WiFi Hotspot key when applying to hostapd.conf
- DietPi-Patches | Move Quartz64 and VisionFive 2 kernel/firmware updates forward - 64-bit Rockchip SBCs | All SBCs with Armbian's 64-bit Rockchip kernel package "linux-image-current-rockchip64" will receive a major kernel upgrade to Linux 6.1.46, including lots of fixes and enhancements that have been applied upstream and by Armbian in the meantime. Since Armbian's APT repository has not seen any update since February 2023, we started compiling and hosting own builds. An own APT repository is being worked on to better distribute our own package builds. Until the, headers for this kernel package can be downloaded at: https://dietpi.com/downloads/binaries/linux-headers-current-rockchip64.deb
