I checked yesterday, and you are right. However, after I enter my username 
and password it reverts to 8N1. Why?

I'm unable to check that at the moment, seems that vaxine (my uVAXII) has 
crashed again. (the "panic: unwire: page not in pmap" problem). BTW, this 
doesn't just happen every now and then, it happens at least once every 24 
hours. A bit irritating...

provide a "roadmap" for doing this upgrade?

Thanks!
