what's the safe upgrade procedure?
Hi,
I'm running XBian 20150210-4 on an rPi-1 model B

I notice there's newer xbian installs and was wondering what is the upgrade procedure?
Note: The Sticky thread refers to making sure I read the FAQ which contains nothing about upgrading.

Any clear instruction would be great.
Thanks
Martin

Check the last entry of the FAQ:
"Why should I not use apt-get"

So using the upgrade process of the xbian-config tool should be fine.
If you want to be safe shutdown your system and create a full backup of your SDCard first with this little tool:

from within xbian config, in Kodi GUI under Programs>XBian-Config or from ssh

RE: what's the safe upgrade procedure?
Sorry to sound totally dense here but I've no idea what it is I'm suppose to be updating / upgrading.

I've made sure (from FAQ) that I have the latest repos in my system and run the commands the FAQ tells me to.

Still at XBian 20150210-4

What else am I suppose to be looking at doing to get a later release?

Thanks for help
Martin

As far as I can tell, xbian-config simply runs apt-get upgrade ?
