I have LineageOS for MicroG 22.2 on my phone. I have also rooted my phone using Magisk.

I want to update my LineageOS version (newer build of 22.2, not to 23), and I want to confirm that the process I plan to take would be correct.

  1. I know to uninstall Magisk, then install the update without rebooting, then install Magisk to the inactive slot.
  2. Since I’m not using MindTheGapps, I’m pretty sure I don’t need to reboot into recovery to sideload anything. Therefore, I can just reboot as normal.

For LineageOS for MicroG, is this all I need to do or am I missing something?

    Per non_burglar… It’s called A/B boot. The purpose is to enable live update. Update while using the device without interruption, then when it finishes, the next reboot uses the new version. Thus, an update/upgrade is actually updating the “slot” not currently in use.
