is it possible to backport 5.6 to KPW1
Just wondering if I copy all the jars in /opt from update img, is it possible to port some new features to KPW1 ?
this will not brick my KPW, am I right? just jars. not the linux system

That's a terrible idea.

(That'd be a 'yes' on the bricking front ^^).

The only hardware things common to the PW1 and the PW2 is the case.

A horrible idea, forget you even thought of it.
