Hi Neil,

The RPi2/3 repository isn't yet synced with the 3B+ repository. This will 
happen over the next couple of weeks. The code seems completely stable, at 
this point.

For now, if you wish to update a RPi2/3 image so that you can boot it in a
3B+, simply add the new 3B+ repository to your /etc/pacman.conf and
perform an admin menu option #1 update. This will take SEVERAL MINUTES. Do
*NOT* reboot until the process completes and you're back at the admin
menu.

To add the repository to your /etc/pacman.conf file, edit pacman.conf and 
add the hamvoip-RPi3Bplus repository just above the standard [hamvoip] 
repository line...Something like:



[hamvoip-RPi3Bplus]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[hamvoip]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist


Once the update is complete, the SD card will boot in the RPi2/3B/3B+.

73, David KB4FXC
