I did try to update via ssh, but found the connection dropped and I couldn't get back in. Updates from KingsCross were faster, it seemed, but once the screen locked, well, you know the rest.

There does seem to be a GitLab issue with Mobian:

https://gitlab.com/mobian1/issues/-/issues/174

I'll be trying some of these suggestions once I have time, will report back if anything of use comes of it.

I was using apt-get because the Software application was not working, so it was the same problem.
I don't think it really changes the pin. It's just the update locks you out if it finishes in the terminal and the screen is off. It needs a restart to finish the install, holding the power button in, powering off then powering back on will usually finish the install and your pin will work again. At least that has worked for me.

I mentioned above that rebooting led to an unusable phone. Obviously there are some issues that still need ironing out and keeping Mobian on the SD card instead of installing it seems a reasonable precaution for now.

The same exact thing happened to me yesterday Software couldn't update so I did it in terminal. Also locked me out, and wouldn't take the PIN anymore. I tried to restart the phone and got the same Oh no! message. I had to reflash the SD card, and now I'm scared to do any updates. I have the Mobian CE coming, hopefully it won't have the same problem.
