Linux Mint 18.2 “Sonya” launched the other day for all its officially supported flavors, including Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, and Xfce, and while it was made available for download to those who wanted to reinstall or deploy the operating system on new computers, the upgrade path from Linux Mint 18.1 wasn’t open. Today, we’re happy to inform users of the Linux Mint 18.1 “Sarah” operating systems that they can upgrade to Linux Mint 18.2 “Sonya” using the instructions provided by project leader Clement Lefebvre in his announcement, and which we adapted to this article in the next paragraphs.
