      Have had this device for a long time and over the years it has been many modules and firmware upgrades.
      The last firmware upgrade was painful, involved a factory restart and reinstating the  'wheel' group which was a concern.

      Currently having regular issues with the device becoming unresponsive.

      Thinking my issues may be the result of some leftover code from an old version or package.

      Is there a way to clear the OS and start again?  Factory reload is for settings, want to get more aggressive.

          Thank you for that.

          The wiki page had some holes in terms of explaining the steps but a google search on the correct terms filled in all the blanks.  Shame you need to have a login to update the wiki, prevents people from making quick suggested edits.

          Using screen as a serial terminal is amazing on OSX.
