Some information and problems during the upgrade process:

On the first try to update can't update all packages and I need to force the upgrade again, the test is do it using the VPN client in remote mode using the web interface of DappNode.

On system/repository I can see a new "tab" Repository, with this I can check that the upgrade is correct.
