After the last Linux update I can no longer ssh into MISTer using Putty, see attachment.

1. Download this and unzip it on your computer --> https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/SD-Inst ... 0210829.7z

2. Take out your microSD from the MiSTer and plug it into your computer to access the files on it.

3. Overwrite the "linux" folder with the "linux" folder inside the folder you unzipped in step 1.

4. Plug the microSD back in the mister and test it now.

If the linux update gets corrupted at all, lots of weird hardware behavior and low-level systems behavior can occur.

Thanks for the reply.
I made sure to use only the update.sh to update Linux and only ran the update all script after Linux was updated and rebooted.
Do I have to remove the SD card to do this or can I do it via FTP? WinSCP can still connect to MISTer and I don't see any problem so far.

Problem solved, the easy way.
I did not think my SD card was corrupted so I first checked my version of Putty: 0.63.
The latest is 0.76 so I downloaded and installed it. Et voila, problem solved.

Also the latest linux upgrade fixes some minor issues with some hubs too apparently.
