Hi Dave, I'd like to keep it consistent from LL 3.0, LL 4.0 and so on. This way people will get used to the same location, same name.

Sounds perfect...
To avoid any further doubt, how about

Menu > System > Lite 2.x Upgrade

@ Jerry,

Sounds really good, excellent news.

Can I clarify,
The aim is to have "1" script that will do any 2.x to the current 2.x
Due to my cautious nature, I still have 2 PC at 2.0 and 2 at 2.2
So this "1" script will bring all my PC's to the next release 2.4.?
No need to use the old 2.0 to 2.2 script.

Thanks... Dave

UPDATE:

I've re-written the upgrade script so that you can run one command, and enter your password once. This means that I can also make a package for it and therefore allow people to upgrade easily from within that LTS series eg. upgrade from 2.0 - 2.4

Upgrading will be as easy as, Menu, enter: lite-upgrade-s2 into the command box, and away she goes.

It's still needs some fine tuning but I have tested this on a fresh install of 2.0 and it does what it's supposed to :)

Hello!

If it can be done, you'll figure out how. I don't see how it can be made much easier than it already is - unless you modify the scripts to make it ALL automatic...

Thanks Rob. I haven't decided yet the simplest way to deploy the upgrade process. We'll come up with something :)

Hello!

I ran the upgrade script on a Samsung RV515-A03US with 8GB RAM and a 1TB HD, and it only took a couple of minutes to upgrade. This is a LOT less time than ANY of the Ubuntu upgrades take. Will keep you informed as I upgrade the other lappies around here.

I ended up with some leftover GRUB entries from 2.0, which I edited out with Grub Customizer. Other than that, it worked like a champ...

UPDATE: I upgraded the 32-bit 2.0 install on my Gateway Tablet PC (M285E, 2 GB RAM, 320GB HD) to 2.2. It was successful, but I had to run boot-repair on it to fix GRUB, then reinstalled grub-customizer. All better now, and what you came up with is certainly better than not being able to upgrade!

Did the upgrade on the HP nc6320 (4 GB RAM, 1 TB HD) after (temporarily) removing grub-customizer, and reinstalled GC afterward. No issues other than having to update the GRUB entries to reflect 2.2 instead of 2.0...
