Octopus firmware version mismatch
I blew up my Octopus board, and just installed a new one. As I load the firmware on, the RatOS configurator gives me the following message:
For the quickest path to success should I:
1. Ignore it and move on
2. Go through the pain of updating all the stuff on my RasPI ( Im not on Bookworm)
3. Use the klipper method to install the mainboard firmwarre by compiling it on my RaspPI?
Thanks for your response

Okay turns out I had successfully flashed it over the too new version using the SD card method, and the problem was I did not configure the serial port id into klipper ( I assume this is usually done in the background by RatOS configurator, so I added the section into my printer config ( overridding RatOS, reset all, and it booted us with same version numbers ) !! Yay, and off i go to initial tests.

Here's my RasPI f/w status
FYI I tried method 3, and the firmware.bin was already the correct one in the out folder, so trioed to flash that on over usb in DFU mode but it wouldnt take it.
I tr5ied putting it on an SD card as firmware.bin and restarting and whilst it seems to be loaded, and klipper can find it, mainsail is not able to connect to it. Any idea why Im stuck?
