Title: [SOLVED] Upgrade to specific version
Post by: jorgevisentini on September 07, 2018, 04:11:32 pm

Hello all.

Sorry my english.

Can I upgrade to a particular version of OPN?

I want to go from version 18.7 to version 18.7.1 (including updating the kernel and updating the packages), but through the web interface I can only go straight to version 18.7.2.

Thank you.

Hi there,

In the firmware settings under flavour choose "(other)" and type:

18.7/MINT/18.7.1/OpenSSL

or

18.7/MINT/18.7.1/LibreSSL

depending on your installed flavour.

Sensible warning for other readers now or in the future: DO NOT force a version downgrade if you think you require this because an upgrade didn't work as chances for failure to downgrade are fair! And DO NOT upgrade to a new major version with this method as it will also fail because that's not how major upgrades are to be performed!


Cheers,
Franco
