The Mikrotik download page only lists hAP mini and hAP lite under SMIPS so I’m guessing they both have this limitation. Maybe they will both be marked as obsolete? Or maybe Mikrotik will just make a release of RouterOS for these that’s short a couple of base packages to save space. Regards, Andrew

Surely that would apply to all SMIPS devices?! I wonder how they will squeeze ROS7 in given no packages can be uninstalled (yet).

While that would normally be true it won’t work for hAP lites from some versions of RouterOS (particularly 6.47.9). Somewhere in the 6.47s the OS started using too much RAM to be able to leave enough space for the upgrade image.
The official response from Mikrotik is to NetInstall and with luck from 6.47.10 it will again fit.
As far as I saw the hAP lite was the only affected device so it must be a combination of CPU arch and memory size being just a little too small.
