Both working, see below
In the next EVE Pro release we will add this IOL XE support.

are you doing anything different? I'm unable to bring my switch up as well

Same here. The L2/SW image is not booting in community edition.

I answered, IOL XE Switch node has a bit different boot way.
It is sorted now on the EVE Pro dev version and will be provided in the next EVE Pro release, fully supported

Hi,
Is this version Free EVE Community Edition Version 6.2.0-4 support L2 software ?

Thenks.
