They just happen in the background. I love it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [β] Tyoda@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) Neat! I was just thinking, if it starts updating the kernel as you turn it off, you'd have to wait a minute for it to finish. M$ style. Has that never happened? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 18 points 2 years ago* (1 child) No. That's not how it works. It installs a new image alongside the current one and once you boot again it simply boots into the new image. Never ever wait for an update again. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] Tyoda@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago (1 child) Oh right, atomic distros work differently, didn't think about that!
