  == Upgrading between major versions

  

- Upgrading between major versions (such as from Fedora 32 to Fedora 33) can  be

- completed using the Software application. Alternatively, Kinoite can be

- upgraded between major versions using the `ostree` command.

+ Until support is fully implemented, you will have to upgrade to a new major

+ versions using the command line.

  

  First, verify the branch is available. You can print all available branches

  with this command:

  

-  $ ostree remote refs fedora

+  $ ostree remote refs fedora | grep kinoite

  

  After you verify the name of your branch, you are ready to proceed. For

- example, to upgrade to Kinoite 33, the command is:

  NOTE: Currently, the default remote for Kinoite 35 is named `fedora`. If this

  is not the case for your system, you can find out the remote name by issuing:

  `ostree remote list`.

  

-  $ rpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/35/x86_64/kinoite

+  $ rpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/36/x86_64/kinoite

  

  The process is very similar to a system update: the new OS is downloaded and

  installed in the background, and you just boot into it when it is ready.
