openmamba 1.0 installations can be upgraded to 1.1 by adding the milestone1 1.1 repository to the list of apt installation sources and performing a system update. It is adviced, before doing this operatrion, to check the compatibility of the new kernel with your hardware by testing one of the 1.1pre4 release live CD/DVD media.
