I wonder if an Aura can run older firmware such as 2.6.1?
I wouldn't advise going back to any firmware version before 2.8.0 on the Aura. From various posts over the years, attempting to load a firmware version older than the factory reset version is one of the best ways to turn your ereader into a paperweight.

If you have opened your Aura and taken an image, it might be fun to try though since several firmware versions (2.6.2 for example) seem to include the Aura's files in the upgrades/ntx508 folder.

Unfortunately (?), I can't try this experiment as the Aura I received has been "borrowed" by my wife.
