How to upgrade Nitrocid KS on Linux
Upgrading the kernel on Linux is simple, depending on the way you've installed the kernel. To upgrade the kernel, choose your preferred method.
If you'd like to manually update your kernel to the latest version or to the latest bleeding-edge version, follow these steps:
Ensure that you have all the required software installed
Download the latest release ZIP file from .
Unpack the ZIP archive to any folder of your choice
Open your favorite terminal emulator, like Konsole, and change the working directory to a folder containing the Nitrocid KS executable
Execute dotnet Nitrocid.dll to start the kernel
If you're running Ubuntu, you can update Nitrocid KS using the Ubuntu PPA, assuming that you have the same series installed. Just follow these steps:
Open your terminal emulator and execute the following:
sudo apt update
Install the nitrocid package and follow the instructions (appending the -XX suffix to indicate the third mod API version part, such as 27)
sudo apt install nitrocid-27
Start ks (appending the same suffix above, like ks-27), or use your app drawer to find Nitrocid KS corresponding to your installed mod API version
You can choose between the version series that you want to upgrade in the output of the apt command when it prompts you to select one of them, as nitrocid is a virtual package.
If you're running Arch, you can install Nitrocid KS using the Arch Linux AUR. Just follow these steps:
Install the nitrocid package and follow the instructions (appending the -XX suffix to indicate the third mod API version part, such as 27)
yay -Sy nitrocid-27
Start ks (appending the same suffix above, like ks-27), or use your app drawer to find Nitrocid KS corresponding to your installed mod API version
You can't install the release version and the cutting-edge (those with the -git suffix) version at the same time, since files conflict.
Open your terminal emulator and install your preferred AUR helper. Further steps assume that you have installed.
