If you want to update via the manual method: connect the flash drive to a PC/Mac make a backup of the flash drive in case you want to be able later revert download the zip of the release you want to use from the unRaid download page extract all the bz* type files overwriting the ones on the flash drive It is probably worth pointing out that as long as you can get hold of the relevant zip file you can use this method to go to any particular release
April 14, 20215 yr Also note that 2Gb is that absolute bare minimum RAM required. It should still work, but you really should consider upgrading the memory, even for using the system as nothing but a NAS

If there is a ‘Previous’ folder on the flash drive it can be removed, but that will mean you can no longer downgrade via the GUI. If you do not want to consider a larger drive then You can always use the manual method of upgrading by downloading the zip for the release from the Limetech site and then extracting all the bz* type files to the root of the flash drive over-writing the ones already there. A similar method can always be used to downgrade as well. A good idea, though, to backup the flash drive before making any changes.

Thanks!
