Sun Jan 5 20:17:48 CET 2025 upgrade: The device is supported, but this image is incompatible for sysupgrade based on the image version (1.1->2.0).

Sun Jan 5 20:17:48 CET 2025 upgrade: Sysupgrade does not work due to rootfs ubi partition size change. Use factory image with the TFTP recovery flash routine.
Image check failed.
Force upgrade

Select 'Force upgrade' to flash the image even if the image format check fails. Use only if you are sure that the firmware is correct and meant for your device!

Is there a question?

And yes sure. You should only flash an image for your actual device...

the image i downloaded is the correct image from openwrt.
why i am getting the following image i do not know why: "Sysupgrade does not work due to rootfs ubi partition size change."
since it is the correct image, can i force upgrade?

if it's your toaster you're trying to flash, then no.

It tells you what you need to do.
No, you cannot just flash the sysupgrade.
