Updating Firmware, how about old config & flashfs

[RDF]

Hi,

(I already asked this in Wengi's howto thread, but I guess nobody reads it that often, so I'll repost here.)

This week I updated my firmware from r740 to r2174.

Are the steps 5 and 6 in the quoted part of Wengi's guide up to date? After uploading the new firmware, all my old settings are already there and the old flash filesystem is there too.
Was my firmware update successful or not? In the webgui I can see that I'm running r2174, but why are the old settings and the old flash filesystem still there???

18. Firmwareupdate
If oleg releases a new firmware you should update:

1) In webinterface 'System Setup' -> 'Setting Management' click "HERE", to save your settings.
2) In webinterface 'System Setup' -> 'Flashfs Management' click "HERE", to seve the flash file system.
3) Download and extract the new firmware. You need the .trx file.
Important: Wait for the reboot after every following step.
4) In webinterface 'System Setup' -> 'Firmware Upgrade' select the .trx file and click 'Upload'.
5) In webinterface 'System Setup' -> 'Setting Management' select your saved settings and click 'Upload'.
6) In webinterface 'System Setup' -> 'Flashfs Management' select your saved flashfs and click 'Upload'.

The update is finished and all services should be accessible.
There will be no data lost.
