update linux system from running system
we would like to do a linux update from a running system.

my thoughts about implementing this process:

download tar.bz2 from server / load via usb

extract and write to sd card (update.sh -o /mountpoint)

save database to sdcard

instruct u-boot to flash the emmc with the image from the sdcard and r…
unfortunately, if using our [regular legacy update scripts there will be a reset at the end of the update](http://git.toradex.com/cgit/meta-toradex-demos.git/tree/recipes-images/images/files/library/imx6/flash_blk.scr?h=rocko#n43). so the issue will be that after the run update step it will always reset before doing the env default -a && saveenv. your proposed solution as given above will therefor update-loop (;-p). howeve…
what to do::

docker exec -it gitlab /bin/bash

then

apt install update-manager-core

then

do-release-upgrade hi mike, thanks for bringing this to our attention, i can confirm that i’m aware of this issue and a fix is in progress. i expect the latest version to be available the debian/rpm repositories in the coming days.

one short term work around would be to download the .deb or .rpm file directly from th… If you need any Linux help, post here in our Linux forum and we'll be glad to offer assistance. Another really great Linux forum is [http://www.justlinux.com](http://www.justlinux.com/) and another popular site is [http://www.linuxquestions.org](http://www.linuxquestions.org/) Program installation methods differ depending on the type of program you are trying to install. Redhat uses the RPM utility to manage .rpm programs, but if you have a .tar, [tar.gz](/posts/bad_link/36792?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftar.gz%2F), .tgz, or similar install file, the steps for installing are entirely different.



From an old post of mine at the *cough!**shameless plug**cough!* [other forum](http://www.justlinux.com) I moderate:



> 
>  In general, RPM (Redhat Package Manager) files contain pre-compiled, ready-to-run programs and associated files such as instalation/usage documentation, etc.  
> 
> .[tar.gz](/posts/bad_link/36792?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftar.gz%2F) files, on the other hand, often contain the source code for a given program. This isn't always true; but it often is. If that's the case, you'll have to compile the progam yourself; instructions on how to do so are usually included. The .[tar.gz](/posts/bad_link/36792?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftar.gz%2F) extension comes from the following:
> 
> 
> 
> The .tar part indicates that the file actually consists of multiple files combined into one large archive file using the "tar" (Tape ARchive) program. The .gz part means that the resulting .tar archive has been compressed using the "gzip" program (similar to zip or Winzip). tar does not, by itself, compress; it only "wraps" multiple files into a single archive file, hence the subsequent use of gzip to actually compress that archive.

This will install the package and give you some on-screen feedback as the intallation progresses. Read the rpm man pages for more info on usage.

For example, to uncompress and extract a file, type the following at a prompt:  
> 
> tar xzvf *filename*. The "z" option will run the file through gzip/gunzip first (assuming you've installed gzip), and then extract the files in the tar archive. Once you've done that, look for a README or some instruction file which should tell you how to proceed from there.
