The Service Pack for Wary 5.5 does not show the version update to 5.5.1 in DISTRO_SPECS and therefore HardInfo does not report the update either. While I can edit DISTRO_SPECS to reflect the version update, the change is not permanent, but session specific only. I am wondering if there is a bug in the pinstall.sh script?
Also, while running Pupmode 13 I am noticing that sometimes my mounted flash drive is reported as: sdb1 and following a re-boot it is reported as: sdc1 Note that I have two flash drives plugged in all the time and at same location, but I am not sure why the drive labels are changing intermittently... maybe a timing issue with hardware detection?
Thanks,

Yes, the version update value in /etc/DISTRO_SPECS does not survive a reboot.
This is due to it getting reverted by the 'init' script in the initrd.
Although this is a "bug", it doesn't have any adverse consequences.
Yes, the device node assignments can vary with more than one usb drive plugged in.
It is ok, just a bit disconcerting to see.
