What if we add a migration package for 18.06 that ar71xx users can opt-in and install, which (when the user initiates the process) will migrate their config and perform an upgrade to 19.07 (ath79)? Their config would be broken for 18.06 after the first step, but if the sysupgrade completes successfully then their config works for 19.07 after the reboot. (Would be nice if there is a way to roll back the config changes if the sysupgrade fails.) This is perhaps a variation of the transition image idea from Peter Geis, but this would be less intrusive to the overall upgrade process (at least for me). Jeff
