Re: Linux Lite 5.0 Final Released - k0nsl - 06-01-2020
Hi team,
I am excited and happy about this new release, appears to be a a feature-rich update. However, I haven't tried it yet. The only downside I can see, is that there's no upgrade path, even running latest LL. But nevertheless, I will install LL 5.0 once I have some time and taken care of some other things.
Thank you.
Faithfully,
-k0nsl

Rufus, Yumi, Multiboot and other multi-boot applications are not supported.

I don't think it is. I think the post is referring to some other tools that do allow the creation of multiboot USBs and Rufus is just mentioned as not supported.
Re: Linux Lite 5.0 Final Released - newtusmaximus - 06-01-2020
My original post (above )was made before rebooting the laptop LAN connection.
On rebooting - logging on password ( upper and low cases) worked as expected. However unable to Verify action such as Lite tweaks or install zoom.deb or access add/delete software
BUT was able to set up wifi passwords to two separate routers
Keyboard language English (UK) throughout,
Keyboard settings
Number lock reset on restart unticked
Keyboard model Fujitsu Amilo laptop - These settings usually work fine on this Fuji lasptop As with LL4.6
Keyboard layout English UK
Not sure what is going on Any ideas welcomed.
PS. On installing I had used the keyboard identification routine - yes/no to various symbols
Jerry PLEASE DELETE THIS. Now on Installation section. Sorry and thanks.

Is it possible to upgrade from 4.x or does it have to be a clean install?

As stated in the release announcement post
Quote:There is no upgrade path to or from RC releases.
There is no upgrade path from Series 2, 3 or 4 ( 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 | 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8 | 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4. 8 ) to Series 5.
So, no, it's not possible and yes, it has to be a full clean install.
