Update problem on RPi 3+

[Sailbus]

I had the hostapd problem whilst doing a clean refresh. I managed to accidentally solve it by plugging in a WiFi dongle to the Pi and upgrading V1-V1.2 using that and not the onboard WiFi Card.

Hope this is of some use?

I will give that a try. I still had an SD card withe the 1.2 upgrade that I had messed some other stuff up on :-) so I gave up on a fresh upgrade. My only upgrade source is my phone hot spot, or I would try an ethernet connection and not have to change from the original network settings to "client" mode, which has been the only way I could get wifi to work. Maybe that would take care of the hostapd issue.
