+<para>
+First, you should shutdown Opie from the "Shutdown" app in the Settings tab.
+Normally, simply running
+<informalexample>
+<literallayout>
+ ipkg update && ipkg upgrade
+</literallayout>
+</informalexample>
+will upgrade Opie. However, if you currently have a version with the 1.5.0
+version number, you will have to upgrade it differently, because Opie now uses a
+different version number (the 1.5.0 was Qtopia's version number, we now use our
+own). To upgrade from one of these older versions, run:
+<informalexample>
+<literallayout>
+ ipkg update
+ ipkg install opie-update
+</literallayout>
+</informalexample>
+Opie should then be upgraded.
