You can do a manual update. Just drop the RPi3 tar file into the update folder, reboot, it will update, then it will fail to boot, power off, move the sd card and place it in the RPi3 and boot it.

Depending on the version you are using you may have to do the following to allow cross platform updating

Code

touch /storage/.update/.nocompat

Thanks for the info

I am planning to get a Raspberry pi 3 in the near future, i have the Raspberry pi 1 currently, can you do a manual update of a SD card from Raspberry Pi 1 to Raspberry pi 3 code? or would i have to do a fresh install?

Thanks

It won't overwrite the cmdline.txt

Jusy update using g the normal method by dropping the tarball in the update folder

Worked fine! no problems

I currently boot from the SD card and run from a usb thumbdrive (using Raspberry pi 1), if i manual update from OpenELEC to Libreelec will it overwrite the cmdline.txt or just update the system?
