Hi.
OpenIndiana Hipster 2019.10 snapshot is ready.
Thank you.
Sorry to be clueless, but how do I upgrade to this? I'm running
2019.04 on an older Intel NUC. I periodically run "pfexec pkg
image-update", but apparently that does not do a major upgrade like
I'm looking for. Do I download an installer USB/DVD and it will
upgrade the boot environment that I'm running now? I don't see
information about this in the Documentation, Wiki or the searchable
list at Mail Archive.
Hipster is a rolling release. You don't need to install from USB/DVD
again. What you only need to do is "pfexec pkg update" (or "pkg update
-nv" for a dry-run (-n) and more verbose information (-v)).
This will typically create a new boot environment which needs to be
activated by a reboot initiated by"pfexec init 6".
Unfortunately, I get an error:
root@nuc:~# pfexec pkg update -v
pkg: 1/2 catalogs successfully updated:
Error encountered while retrieving data from: [Errno 5] I/O error
Why is "pkg update" not in
https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Upgrading+OpenIndiana
but "pkg image-update" is, and the reverse is the case in the man page
for pkg (yes update, no image-update).
What does image-update do? The Wiki says it, "you need to update to the
latest revision before updating to more recent ''hipster'", which
suggests (to me) that image-update updates to a repository and a major
release has a new repository.
Thank you for your help.
