if you got a original box yes you can use any IMAGE...if you got a clone you can't use any IMAGE
You must surely be referring to Images installed in Flash and not in Multiboot. My question was about the compatibility of Multiboot Images with a different kernel version than that in the Flash Image.
Problem is the Dream Elite for sim 201 available on the forum seems to have the new OE 1.6. And that was why I got puzzled about the different kernel versions.
