  • added more WiFi firmwares to support WiFi-Dongles based on RT61, RT73, RealTek 87xx and Realtek 88xx chipsets.
  • Backup and Restore functionality can now deal with filled up /usr/local partitions or with large backup archives by creating backup/restore jobs on disk rather than in memory.

  • file names of backup files will now contain the firmware version they were created on
  • added socat as a new default package

  • implemented orderly "shutdown" functionality in WebUI (Config -> Maintenance)
  • removed microSD init/setup and firmware update WebUI components as they are not required with RaspberryMatic
  • fixed firewall setup to also setup/start the IPv6 firewall with the same settings like the IPv4 version
  • fixed incorrect crontab/crond setup which was the reason why CloudMatic didn't immediately work after a reboot
