Once you get into the setup menu go to options and change the release from 4.9 to 4.1.1-RELEASE and when you go to install it should pull the 4.1.1 down instead. The main problem you'll find is a finding a FTP mirror that still has the 4.1.1 binaries sitting around. I can't even guess if such a beast exists. --roop
