RetroBoot is frequently used to turn old thin clients (like the HP t5745 or Wyse terminals) into lightweight network appliances. However, 1.2.0 introduced a regression where the DHCP client would timeout on "noisy" networks, forcing users to statically assign IP addresses.

The 1.2.1 update reverts to the timeout parameters found in the 1.1 branch but retains the new WPA2-PSK supplicant. The result? Network initialization at boot is now roughly 40% faster. On a cold boot, a machine can now go from power-on to a connected network state in under 12 seconds on solid-state storage. Issue: Games crash when returning to menu

Version 1.2.1 is one of the most stable and polished releases from the classic “RetroBoot for PSC” series.
