Re: Toaster Version Upgrade in Yocto - Any Guides Available?

Hi Vincent,

Yes.

If you want to continue to use your existing Toaster database, you can do the following:

 a) Stop any current Toaster instance
  b) Backup your existing Toaster database to a separate location
  c) Upgrade your poky/bitbake installation, to bring in the new Toaster code
  d) Start up your new Toaster instance

What should happen is that when Toaster starts, any new database schemas changes will be applied to the current database, and you can then go forward from there.

I will say that there were several feature additions to the database (e.g. Distro selection), but no database deprecations. The rest of the changes in Toaster were around defects and workflow improvements.

Subject: [Toaster] Toaster Version Upgrade in Yocto - Any Guides Available?

Hi all,

I am looking for any guides available for me to upgrade me current Yocto toaster to the latest one to use many of the good functions available? I guess I only need to update the Yocto version, am I right?

THANK YOU! :)
