Is there a way to upgrade V0.4 image to newest version git?

[DeqingSun]

I tried to fetch git and replace all files in coder-dist and etc. But it didn't work. Is there a way to upgrade it? By the way how can I log in with "coder" user instead of pi? Thanks

It's a little ugly, as some of the file structure and a few dependancies have changed... I'll have an official build within the next week, but if you want to get your hands dirty, here's the basics:

• export all your projects to your laptop so you don't loose them
• update your linux build: apt-cache update; apt-get upgrade
• add the coder user to the gpio group if you want to toy with gpio stuff
• in your coder-dist directory, "git pull"
• in coder-base run "npm install" to get any required dependancies
• in coder-apps run ". install_pi.sh ../coder-base/" -- that will put all the right apps in your coder build
• update your config files.

You may run into something I've omitted along the way, but if you're comfortable with git and linux you should be able to work it out.

The latest Coder image (v0.5) is now available for download on the site.
