Upgrade from Linux Mint 20 to Linux Mint 20.1

The Mint project today unlocked the upgrade path from Linux Mint 20 "Ulyana" to the latest version Linux Mint 20.1 “Ulyssa.”

The distribution is based on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa) and runs with 5.4 LTS.Το Linux Mint 20.1 “Ulyssa” κυκλοφόρησε επίσημα στις 8 Ιανουαρίου 2021, με ένα αναβαθμισμένο desktop environment (Cinnamon 4.8), υποστήριξη για Web Apps, μια νέα IPTV εφαρμογή αναπαραγωγής, βελτιώσεις για εκτύπωση και σάρωση και πολλές άλλες αλλαγές.

Because Linux Mint 20.1 uses the same package base as Linux Mint 20, you do not need to download the new ISOs to upgrade your existing installations.

You just need to upgrade, which is an easy process for anyone using Linux Mint.

You are now ready to upgrade your Linux Mint 20 installation to Linux Mint 20.1.

You need to activate the System Upgrade utility and then from the Edit menu click on Upgrade to "Linux Mint 20.1 Ulyssa".

The upgrade screen will appear and you will need to follow the instructions to proceed with the process, which will take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or more depending on your connection speed and specifications you.

If you are prompted to override any configuration files during the upgrade process, do so.

When the upgrade is complete, simply restart your computer to enjoy Linux Mint 20.1 "Ulyssa" and its new features.
