uConsole: Will updating the image break anything?

[supercom32]

Hi there,

So I noted that on my uConsole an icon says that updates are available. Does anyone know if it’s safe to update packages without the fear of it breaking uConsole specific functionality?

Your first update will break WiFi, but there are several threads here on the forums that cover how to fix the issue. Here is one such post:

Solution: Wifi not connecting after apt upgrade

apt upgraded Wi-Fi & disappeared after reboot. To fix this in terminal do sudo raspi-config, you can get it restored by > Advanced Options > Network Config > selecting [dhcpcd] instead of [Network Manager] and rebooting the OS.( if you don’t see that option in raspiconfig update the tool by hitting update it will then show.)

Other than the WiFi issue I have not had any other difficulties when updating.
