Using 73Linux On an Existing RPi OS Install


 

Greetings all,
?
I have a Rpi 4B with 4GB ram running the 32bit version of Legacy Bullseye downloaded from the Raspberry Foundation website and freshly installed about 6 months ago. ?I've installed and have been using a few ham radio applications from Bullseye's app repository (namely JS8Call and WSJT-X). ?I also downloaded and compiled flrig and fldigi from source.
?
Couple of questions:
?
1. Is it okay to use 73Linux on my existing system to install and re-install other ham radio applications offered through 73Linux, or do I need to start with a fresh copy of the OS?
?
2. If I CAN safely use 73Linux on my existing system, should I first uninstall any existing applications that I want to re-install through 73Linux?
?
Thanks in advance,
?

It should run fine on top of what you already have but I suggest backing up the system before hand just to be safe.

I really appreciate you providing 73Linux to the amateur radio community.
