Updating to Buster from a fresh Connect+

Post by saardrimer »

Hello!

I've just received a Connect+ and would like to upgrade to the latest OS from a Linux machine. I'm looking for something like this:

but more recent and for Linux rather than Windows.

Any pointers to the best/easiest way to do this?

Thanks,
Saar.

Answering my own question. Just need to follow the instructions for updating the Compute Module within the Connect:

The Connect won't appear as a drive without first (setting up and) running 'rpiboot' (having booted with the micro-USB cable connected to a PC!). Then it's possible to copy over the new image with 'dd'.
