Note: you may need to repeat the update more times to update to the latest version. For example, to update from version 2.0 to version 2.2, you need to do the process twice: first to update from 2.0 to 2.1 and then to update from 2.1 to 2.2.
Note: system updates may require long time (specially if new libraries are compiled). Make sure you properly power the Raspberry (fully charged battery) and be patient!
IMPORTANT DO NOT INTERRUPT SYSTEM UPDATES
