[ BUG ] IMPORTANT: Upgrade Bug fix for 3.0 and 3.2

[Jerry]

Hi Jerry, ran the patch, did the settings - Lite upgrade thing and still cannot upgrade! 

Tell me the exact steps you took.

A quick thank you to all those who reported this and to Jerry for the solution. I confess I hadn't realised I hadn't upgraded until I did the terminal check. It now gives a 3.4 response and the upgrade is well worth it. Very impressed.

Tks Jerry. 

Desktop hpdc7700p - Followed instruction for upgrading LL3.2 64 bit to 3.4 64 bit .


cat /etc/llver  now reports 3.4.

Will now check family Lappies that are already upgraded to LL3.4 

UPDATE- Family laptops already upgraded to  LL 3.4 all report 3.4   to cat /etc/llver .

There have been a number of people reporting issues with Linux Lite 3.0 & 3.2 when trying to upgrade.

If you have already upgraded to Linux Lite 3.4, please check the following.

Open a terminal and do:

Code: [Select]

cat /etc/llver
If you have already upgraded to or are running Linux Lite 3.4 and it returns Linux Lite 3.4, you are NOT affected by this bug and you have nothing further to do.

If it returns, cat: /etc/llver: No such file or directory OR Linux Lite 3.0 OR Linux Lite 3.2 and you have already tried upgrading to 3.4, complete the following:

For people who tried to upgrade from Linux Lite 3.0 open a terminal and do:

Code: [Select]

wget http://repo.linuxliteos.com/patches/patch-llver-30 && chmod +x patch-llver-30 && ./patch-llver-30
