but do i need to do some backups first?
do you forgive the configurations?
Usually configuration should not be overwritten. But running a backup before is always recommend.

sorry but i have another question, i downloaded dietpie for arm7 with amiberry, but i installed it on an RPI4 with 4Gb of ram with arm8 architecture.
with the command dietpi-software reinstall 108 you automatically install the correct version for rpi4?
arm7 means 32bit and the installation script will respect this.

arm7 it’s Raspberyy pi 4?
Be careful mixing thinks. Just because the RPI4 is capable to run ARMv8 aarch64, dosne’t mean you need to run a 64bit image explicitly. You can easily run ARMv6 or ARMv7 images on RPI4. The installation script will correctly detecte the running OS version.

strange I ran the command
dietpi-software reinstall 108 however did not install amiberry version 4.1.6.
why?
Because binary is loaded from our server and they are fixed one as they are pre compiled. They might need to be updated in this case.

Hello,
have install Amiberry Update from 4.1.3 to 5.3, have do diet-software reinstall 108, after that new Version is on my pi400. Have a mice Problem when the Emulation is running. The Arrow pins on the left upper Corner and does nothing.
Before the update the emulation ran ok, after the update the mouse can no longer be moved. In Amberry Gui, the mouse works flawlessly. I contacted Midwan, he said it could be an SDL issue. The correct SDL 2.24.0 can be seen under About. What could be the problem here. Can someone kindly help me or maybe even know the solution? Have a nice evening everyone
