This is a positive response, for a change.  I've just updated OI on
two of my test systems, one Intel and the other AMD Ryzen.  Both
updates were successful.  I was able to log in on the console and
remotely for both systems.  Everything appeared quite normal.
Everything seemed to work.  I'm pleased with the updates.

The first was from an update done on 2020-10-05.  The second was from
an older update, done on 2020-07-05.
