System Update
For system security and stability reasons, it is recommended that users update the system using the apt command after installing the system.
The /etc/apt/source.list file contains the list of software sources for the apt command. Before installing software, you need to update the package list using the apt command.
- First, open the terminal command line and enter the following command:
xxxxxxxxxxsudo apt update
- Next, upgrade all installed packages to the latest versions using the following command:
xxxxxxxxxxsudo apt full-upgradeIt is recommended to use the full-upgrade option instead of upgrade so that dependency packages are also updated synchronously when related dependencies change.
- After executing the
apt full-upgradecommand, drivers, kernel files, and some system software may be reinstalled. It is recommended that users manually reboot the device for the updates to take effect using the following command:
sudo reboot
