Need help learning how to update my system

Hey guys!

I need to update my system, so I went ot the wiki and learned that I have to type:

pacman -Syu

in the terminal, but I get a weird output that I am unsure how to answer:

replace kernel26-firmware with core/linux-firmware? [Y/n]

I am unsure what the difference is and am afraid of answering the wrong answer. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me what the difference between the two are and which one I should pick. Thanks!

I think we'll start before 'updating the system' with something else. Try googling the line you pasted, or searching the forums with that line. Ask back if you don't understand.
