What is the process for upgrading to the latest version from 5.0-rc16c?


Recommended Posts

I would go for the "straightforward" way and start from scratch. This is the right time to start with a 'clean' system.

  1. Copy your existing *.key file on your USB drive to your PC or another safe place, you'll need it later
  2. Take a screenshot of your current disk assignments, it allows you to re-enter them later
  3. Make a list of your current user names
  4. Download the installer for your preferred system
  5. Use the installer to create a new Unraid OS on your existing USB drive
  6. Copy your license key to the folder /config on your USB drive
  7. Start your Unraid system with the updated USB drive
  8. Configure your disk assignments as before (see earlier screenshot)
  9. Set a root password
  10. Create the user names as listed before
  11. All shares will be automatically created as public accessible
  12. Configure each share with the access permissions as desired
  13. You have now a basic installation with disks and shares running as before
  14. Do further tweaking and installations as desired (there is a lot more in Unraid V6 that can be done)
