Neon has to be Rebooted multiple times after System Update

Hello is it correct that I have to reboot Neon multiple times afte a system Update?

Thanks,

Tumbleweed for me just had 3200+ updates and I was a little nervous about the reboot, but 1 reboot and all is well. :sweat_smile:

Could you tell me what your Post has to do wih the Question?

No. This is older, outdated info.

Neon, do default to using the offline-updates feature that applies updates when you reboot, but this can be turned off in System Settings, and of course one does not need to reboot immediately. And this only applies to deb updates and Discover, so flatpak, snap, and KDE Store theme items do not use this.

If you use this feature, the system boots into a very low level state to apply the updates, then continues to boot normally.

In older versions of systemd, it DID boot to a low level, apply the updates, then reboot normally. It does not do this now. I just checked, to make sure, and I only saw my grub menu once. It most definitely did physically reboot twice a few years ago.

It can be turned off.

I found it very annoying, so I was happy to discover that it can be switched off.

Interesting, so that’s what that installing updates screen is in Fedora is? Just a hyper minimal offline install environment? Neat.

I have no idea if that is what Fedora is using; the last time I used it I uised Kinoite.

There is no Grub Menu for me. It shows only systemd-boot.

It does not continue booting after installing the updates until I switch of and on again multiple times.
I´ve disabled this now.

Thanks,

KDE neon? It is not using systemd-boot currently.

Very odd in any case.
