BUFFALO PATCHES Patches are cumulative bug fixes to a version. They are named as: patch-X.X.X-buff-N.tgz Where X.X.X is the version the patch applies to and N is the patch number. The Nth patch includes all patches before it. So there is no need to apply old patches. Further, the patch install process will handle any corrections needed from a previous patch. So there is no need to remove an old patch before installing the new. In some cases removal might cause a patch install failure. This is because the software management tools might be themselves being patched. Note: The patch level of a version is appended in the 'issue' file and Buffalo Login splash to the end of the version.
