Best Way to Update

General Discussion

Is it better to update the Vero 4k+ via My OSMC or is it better to update in the terminal via sudo apt upgrade? Or sudo apt full-upgrade?

2

Both updating via My OSMC and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade are equivalent

Thanks

Thank you. If I update via terminal should I do a sudo shutdown -r now (or reboot) afterwards or does it matter?

IMO, when uptime is not critical, reboot after dist-upgrade is a best practice.

5

Okay. Very good! I’ll do that.

Is it bad practice to do a sudo apt upgrade or sudo apt full-upgrade over the sudo apt dist-upgrade?

6

Always use dist-upgrade.
