Hi there.
Just activated my good old BIS-7870 barebone system again.
It was running the old free home Sophos UTM v9.5 (2017) firewall, totally outdated and license expired.
So, I checked out the Sophos website, and noticed that they still offered a free home version, and the .iso filename was: SW-18.5.2_MR-2-380.iso
I put it on a USB stick, 'plopped' it in my BIS-7870 system, and I had to wait some time, before I heard an alarmsound, and the display showed the message:

Contains Firmware for: SF01V SO01

Error : Cannot install this firmware

press y to reboot
-------------------------
Well, that was a bummer. My BIS-7870 is max 2Gb RAM, and I cannot expand that.
My UTM v9.5 version ran beautifully on 2GB.
My question:
Is there and OLDER version that runs in 2GB, anyone?
Would be very pleased to get some info on this.
