Your board has not yet been upgraded. Please do so before attempting to browse it.

What was attempted: Upgrading, using the 2 MB installer, then tried the simple upgrade to 1.8.16.
Try removing the 'lock' file from the /install directory and then try upgrading. Make sure you're using the correct upgrade files.
Nevermind. Solved due to upgrade.html instructions.

Forgot about doing that.

This step in particular is sometimes missed.
