(I really don't like trying to update machines)

NR 2.0.5  
Raspi (Jessie) (Yes, another one)  
Raspi 2 Model B Rev 1.1

`node -v` == 10.23.0

I'm guessing it needs to be NR version 1.2x....  
and `node -v` should be 8.17

This is what the edit screen shows me.

Note the `ping` and `scan frequency` nodes.

When looking at the log I see this:

```

So somehow it seems the `ui_` have intercepted the `dashboard` ones.

This is a different machine to the ones of which I was asking earlier.

I'm stuck what to do.

I've tried a couple of things, but they don't seem to work.

It may or may not be the reason but node v12 is the minimum supported version for node-red v2.x

How did you manage to install node-red 2 anyhow? The proper script insists on node V12 or greater.

Ok, thanks.

So _some how_ I've got into this scenario.

How do I get the node back to the earlier version and node-red back to 1.2.x?

In answer to your last question: Dunno. That's what I see when I ask for the version on the NR edit page.

Why, you might as well push forward now.

Use the official installer script and `--node14` and get up to date...

`bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered) --node14`

Trying it now.

So that is what I could do on the other ones I mentioned earlier on - yes?

Yes (after SD clone of course)

Ah, all these fun things to do.

Oh, sorry to digress: the _backing up_ of the SD cards.... I was only going to make an ISO image of them. Kinda hard to check if it works, as it will be on a windows PC as an ISO.

(Sorry, trying to make _chit chat_ while the command is running.)

It worked!

Dashboard loaded and GUI working.
