hi b - you solved it. thank you.

when you see linux - tell them that it needs to function properly - the proper way would be when you click on "refresh" then it should give you the option to update the os

 

[Condobloke]

G'day m - by updating the os, you mean to upgrade it to the next version....for example from linux Mint 19 to linux mint 20 ?
