I just did the upgrade myself from Openelec 6.0.3 last night. I downloaded the tar, and replaced the files in the /flash partition, except config.txt and cmdline.txt. (Of course I have a backup of the storage partition)

When it first loaded, I had my doubts about smoothness, but I guess there is a lot to update between the database and Jarvis addons, and it wanted to rescrape my music for some reason. After about 10 minutes it levelled off and the smooth experience I've always had came back. All in all... It's pretty much the exact same as Openelec, only with Jarvis, at this point. (Not that I'm complaining)

Thanks, I thought I have to put the files into the update shared folder...

Make a backup in the OE settings add-on, then simply update.

The main problems with updating are with kodi. Sometimes add-ons aren't updated for the new version.

If it goes wrong then you can use the backup you made.

Thanks Irusak, I will try in the evening and post results.

Hello dear community.
How to switch from OE 6.0.3 (latest stable) on RPi2 without loosing Library and settings please?
I have googled and browsed this forums, but I didn't find it.
Maybe the Wiki can be extended about this topic too.
Thanks in advance for suggetions.
if I missed a thread about this, which I probably did, please forgive me.
Thanks.
