HASSbian is based on Raspbian and uses the same repositories. Any changes to Raspbian will be reflected in HASSbian. To update and upgrade system packages and installed software (excluding Home Assistant) do the following.
Log in as the `pi` account and execute the following commands:

```bash
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
```

Press `Y` to confirm that you would like to continue.
