Yes, in terms of latest image available. Be sure to update the kernel, uboot and the system as all of them are not up-to-date in the image.
Thanks Terra854, but I have no idea how to do that.
With Armbian it would just be an 'apt-get upgrade' (not even necessary at all since our most recent images are all up to date, we released 5.20 days ago containing all the latest and greatest fixes). For longsleep's original Xenial image you have to read through his instructions: http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=376 (following links and so on -- longsleep chose to use scripts instead of relying on Ubuntu's own mechanism (not only) since he wanted to ensure that all distro bakers that came up with own OS images are also able to provide upgrade mechanisms -- a pretty smart move from the very beginning!)
