Description

Users get the message:

> It is impossible to upgrade the device […] (xx GB) - /dev/sdc1 because it was not created using Tails Installer. You should instead use “Clone & Install” to upgrade Tails on this device.
> Help would be appreciated, thanks.

But now the option is “Install by cloning”

They are writing to support because they don’t find the option the message point to. Good news is they are reading the error message!
