- Make sure the inverter or battery is fully charged and working.

Check the installed release
So first of all check you installed the version using the following command:
cat /etc/os-release
Upgrade all the system packages
This upgrades the entire system to the latest Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS release.
To list upgradable packages, run the command:
sudo apt list --upgradable
Next, refresh the local package index and upgrade the packages in one single command as follows:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
This may take some time depending on the number of packages installed with pending updates and depends on your internet speed. Once the update is complete, reboot your system to use the latest kernel that comes with the update.
