??? note "Updating PiKVM OS"
|
|
|
|
!!! tip
|
|
|
|
We recommend updating PiKVM OS only if you have physical access to the device, or in the most extreme cases.
|
|
The update process is very reliable, but there is always a small chance that something may go wrong
|
|
so reflashing will be required. PiKVM cannot be bricked, but you need physical access to the memory card
|
|
for this operation.
|
|
|
|
To update, run following commands under the `root` user:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# pikvm-update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you encounter an error like:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# pikvm-update
|
|
bash: pikvm-update: command not found
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It's most likely you have an old OS release. You can update the OS as follows:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# rw
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# pacman -Syy
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# pacman -S pikvm-os-updater
|
|
[root@pikvm ~]# pikvm-update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next time you will be able to use the usual method with `pikvm-update`.
