after update "Unknown pin chip name 'probe'"

Recently saw that an update to Beacon was available, and without thinking enough, decided to perform the update. After doing so I can no longer boot and get this error: 
Unknown pin chip name 'probe'
Unknown pin chip name 'probe'
Could this be specific to the Beacon package update or something else generally wrong? As an aside, should one just never update packages on RatOS?

Well this may have been my misunderstanding. It seems like all I needed to do was go into RatOS configuration and select the proper mainboard and it started working. All set here 🙂
