Upgrade to 11.

    Ive had 10.0.4 running happily and am starting to look at upgrading to 11.00. Done an install to a clean hard drive and established the drivers all work as expected, but before I wipe the SSD currently with 10.0.4, is it possible to shortcut getting the settings transferred to a new install or do I have to manually set it all up again? Does 'Backup' and recover work for this?

    Just make a backup of the 10.x install in-case you want/need to revert, and then update the existing install. No need to wipe it unless you have a good reason to.

    ok... can see why I thought windows was a step forward from Dos :)

    I'll have play tomorrow and see if my 73 year old brain cells can cope. ..... seem to remember I SSH'd once before. Thanks!

    Ensure you have SSH enabled in LibreELEC. In PuTTY on your remote computer enter the IP address of your LibreElec box, select Connect Once and username =root and password=libreelec if you haven’t changed it during the LibreELEC installation. It really is that simple.

    Got it, thanks! I went down a slighlty different route and used WinSCP that I currently use to upload podcasts to my phone using FTP.

    That allowed me to log into libreelec /root/storage/.update and upload the .gz file.
    Reboot the libreelec system and the update installed perfectly.

    Thanks for saving hours of fidling around!

    Hello

    Just to perfect understanding

    I have librelec 10.0.4 on RPI4 and I want to migrateur to 11.0

    I need to

    1- make a backup

    2- make a clean install of 11.0 (nexus)

    3- After New installation > go to librelec setting and install my backup

    And it will working ?

    Make a backup .. then update to 11.0 via the settings add-on. This avoids the need for clean-install and restore. If (and only if) something goes wrong you have the backup to restore back to 10.0.

    Well,

    I tried upgrade from 10.0.4 to 11.0.0 (and also to 11.0.1). Did not worked.

    Via Kodi, the download and extract process was success. But after boot Im stucked at "LibreELEC (official): 11.0.1" screen. No disk activity, just freeze upon boot. Im kinda out of luck there right? (Linux, standalone x86 version).

    xsoft Nvidia GPU is only supported with Generic-legacy image.

    To update via ssh:

    Code
    systemctl stop kodi
wget -P /storage/.update https://releases.libreelec.tv/LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-11.0.1.img.gz
reboot
