@drakaen391 could I download the image, transfer it over through my network connection and install it over my existing image?

Drakaen391

@tobas nope, the new image is a full overhaul and requires a fresh install.

If you upgrade to 4.4 you would need to start very fresh

Drakaen391

also, unlike a PC, the bios and other items for the Pi to run, is on the SD card... so its not possible to install fresh images like you would on a PC

tobas

@drakaen391 so...in order to upgrade, I would have to lose all my roms, saved games etc??

mitu

@tobas No, you could transfer those over to your PC or on an USB stick, then transfer them back on the new system.

mitu

@tobas Please post the info requested https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

tobas

@mitu ah. so basically, pull my roms and bios folders out, overwrite the card with the new image, out bios and roms folders back?

tobas

@mitu I'm sorry, I'll post it when I get home. thanks for the help so far.

tobas

@drakaen391 I'm sorry I'm such a noob, but if I do the sudo apt-get upgrade, will that overwrite my entire SD card? or just update retropie?

Drakaen391

@tobas it will only update the programs

tobas

@drakaen391 alright, well I'll try that first then before taking more drastic measures. thanks again.
