operating system updates
by Snorkel1 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55D6B)
hello, I hope everyone is well.
On Lenovo 110, intel core i5 inside I am running Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon, 64 bit.
I am just installing updates suggested by the system but after some update the system did not start anymore. I was lucky enough to recover previous version before the update using the function "advanced options for Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon". (there were three options when I tried to start my Linux. "Advanced options" was one of them.)
After the recovery I have accepted another "suggested" update and the system is working ok.
Could anybody suggest what to do to avoid such problems in the future?
Are there any particular updates that I would need to avoid?
How can I protect my system ?
Many thanks in advance for your kind response.
Best Regards
Lech
