Title: Update Error
Post by: Dookus on February 07, 2020, 09:45:22 AM
Successfully installed linux-lite-4.2-uefi-64bit on a Dell Latitude e4310 with UEFI enabled, boot from Flash Drive then installed from Desktop to HDD without any errors or problems, then reboot successfully, is there any point in installing to HDD from the boot menu, would it be the same outcome? happy to try that as well.


only problem is unable to update, this occurs after reboot, rebooted and tried twice

@Dookus


Remember to start a new thread - you're asking for support in a development thread ;)  -- I'll move it..


To answer - Close any open windows/apps.. Something has it locked. Perhaps another Software install...
If you can't locate it - reboot and try again..
