Haha, I bet the engineers who designed this are sitting back laughing at us trying to figure this out. RiOS, more like RIP-OS!

Nah, I think B is the way to go. Downgrading RiOS is just not possible, period.

But wouldn't it make sense that you can only downgrade to a version that was previously installed?
