Upgrading to 21.3 from LM21.2 all works fine but not from downloaded iso files.

These are all the updates to download and install even if you change to a local mirror

Firt time update session: The first time after installation the update manager run and show all the packages to download and install.

After two consecutive installations the system is only partially updated. Update Manager and Software Sources list mirrors appear to not be working properly.

Thanks SMG.
Better wait for any notice about this issue.

Hi. The only reason i had installed 6024 version was: Item 2. Improve system performance and stability.

But you are right.

Today i'll install the latest 6042 bios version and, after run Timeshift backup, i'll try to install the latest kernel module and see what's happen.

Thanks for answering. Start Update Manager, right click on the new kernel module and select "Ignore updates for this package". By doing this, remove this update. But I have doubts about how to blacklist an unwanted kernel module. As you suggest, I ran a BIOS update to a more up-to-date ver...

Guys:
As a test I choose evowise as a download distro mirror and it works very well. But through the update-manager it fails.

I try Fix MergeList problems. But "...Failed to download repository information Check your Internet connection. I choose another mirror though most of them are very slow.

Thank you !

Hi Guys Since a couple of hours update-manager shows apt corrupted over evowise mirror. This is the fastest mirror i allways choose. Other mirrors shows very poor bandwidth at least here in Buenos Aires. E:Failed to fetch http://mirrors.evowise.com/linuxmint/packages/dists/tina/main/binary-i386/Pack...

Enjoy Mint Irwan. is a very good distro to begin with. In my case use xfce because is very reliable, stable & customizable.

Best Regards Irwan.

Hi Guys !

MInt is a good Linux place to take a rest after jumping along the years from a distro to another.

Warm Regards for all of you. Ah. ...sorry bad english.
