Upgrading to Pixel

Mon Oct 10, 2016 12:40 am

I am running (I think) Raspian Lite (no desktop). I figured the path to Pixel was to install LXDE and then do upgrade. That didn't seem to work.

What's the path for me to go from my Raspian Lite -> Pixel exactly?

I would recommend to wipe lite and start fresh with a full download.
Unless specified otherwise my response is based on the latest and fully updated RPiOS Buster w/ Desktop OS.

Yea, that would be the easy path. I just have a lot of stuff on it already, don't want to have to start from scratch.

I'll try other suggestion here and see how that goes.
