Details - I have an original v1 WNDR3700 which was running fine on LEDE 17.01.4 using the image downloaded directly from the distribution site.  I built a new image yesterday that was up to date with trunk and flashed the sysupgrade image produced using LuCI, after the router came back up it was in failsafe mode with the stock text about needing to flash again with a sysupgrade-compatible image.

I am reporting it here in case something recent is at fault.  (I am rebuilding with git reverted to the 17.01.4 tag to ensure that I can successfully build an equivalent image that flashes successfully, but I don't think there was anything terribly unusual about my build, no errors were encountered and I built from distclean all the way up the toolchain to produce the image.)

Happy to try to retrieve any other logs or diagnostics you might find useful.
