We are proud that UBOS beta 3 has been released this morning.

[PC]
[Virtual Box]
[Raspberry Pi]
[Beagle Bone Black]

There are two major new features:

  1. UBOS now also supports the quad-core Raspberry Pi 2, and the Beagle Bone Black. These two new platforms join the original Raspberry Pi and the x86 (64bit) platform for physical and virtualized computers, for more options to run UBOS.

  2. The UBOS Staff makes secure configuration of UBOS devices without keyboard and monitor a snap. See blog post and documentation.

For more details, refer to the release notes.

How to upgrade

If you are an existing UBOS user and want to upgrade, log into your UBOS device. First, you might want to make a backup of your sites:

% sudo ubos-admin backup --out ~/backup-$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M).ubos-backup

Then, to upgrade UBOS and all apps on your device, all you need to do is:

% sudo ubos-admin update
