Thank you for reading this:

 

• Mission:

upgrade a remote cubietruck without bricking it over ssh from WAN.

 

• Question

Is there some kind of tutorial on how to upgrade from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS?

I didn't find it yet. By the way the desktop version is quite stable. Great job!

 

• Question2

What I am looking for though is, how do I remove the x-server? I thought I could

use the raspberry pi teamviewer version, but that didn't work out due to some

protocol problem. Therefor I could use all the RAM for docker/apache/mariadb

Thank you!

 

With kind regards

How to upgrade from Ubuntu Trusty to Xenial?

 

?! Worked for me

That's theory and in most cases it works just fine.

 

In general, not just with Armbian, but with any operating system I would rather do complex distribution upgrades with access to console. There are simply too many things which could go wrong. After all you are upgrading most if not all packages.
