Update 6 - Clean install or over current Update 5 setup?

Post by HKvalhe »

Hi, just downloaded the newly released Update 6 for AmigaOS 4.1, but i am wondering about this:

Can Update 6 be installed over my configured Update 5 setup, or does it demand a CLEAN Update 5 setup to install Update 6 successfully?

That's all i wonder before doing the update.

There is no need for a "clean" install of Update 5. Just install it on top of your existing Update 5-based system as per usual.

Already done :) Thank you and your team for this wonderful, minor but very useful update :) Just installed it over my previous setup without problems ;) Thank you so much! :)

Love the AmiUpdate tool, i'm a big fan of automated stuff. We are getting close to what I expect of an OS for everyday usage.

Thanks to the OS4 team!

It's a very professional and future-proof step, making AmigaOS more modern and serious that way ;) I like that ;) Mine is set to check for updates and install them automatically ;)
