Hi.
I read through the update list but I am still not sure if this release will work on a emmc drive? (Previous version 19.2 would not install)
Thanks

What size is your emmc? Are you installing Mint as a single OS? Did 19.2 reject because of space? Or because of some other issue?

Mint 19.2 doesn't have drivers for emmc drives.

I just (Dec 16 2019) installed Mint 19.3 Xfce, it looks and runs great but I had these minor issues:

-- WiFi was not enabled although I'd set it up and used it during the install.
--- Note: I had net.ifnames=0 on the 'linux' boot line; cause a name mismatch after install?

-- First run of synaptic I got an error message (not saved) which advised to

Code: Select all

dpkg --configure -a

(without the 'sudo' ? - that'll confuse new users).

-- I think these messages would also confuse new users:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
...
