Target Changes

Backward Compatible

Platform

OS

Filesystems renamed from D6.0->D7. GUI Oem-Config added; Ubuntu moved to the 24.04 version.

No (Primarily because FS renaming and U24.04 are not backward compatible, but GUI OEM config is because the Serial UART mode (part of D6.0) still works if display is not available.
