Before you update

• Update appliances and dials together: a 0.7 dial is not supported with a 0.6 appliance.
• The update process includes an OS update and can take a long time on low-power micro-SD equipped boards.
• The autostream update also rebuilds owntone-mini and vibra-mini from source.
• Leave the appliances powered on; they will reboot themselves once done.
