Ubuntu 10.04 Update

Posted by attriel May 5th, 2010

So Ubuntu 10.04 (LTS) released on 30 April, late (EST anyway) … that’s cutting the hair rather thin :o

Anyway, I followed the directions found at the Lucid Upgrades page, which seemed to be how it was set up already.

Then it removed 6 packages, installed 30 new ones, and upgraded 400 I think it said.    That has so completely scrolled off the screen however.

I said Yes, and it went about it’s merry business.  It’s been about 30 minutes so far, although a couple times it’s stopped for input and I didn’t catch it for a while.  First it wanted to know what used PAM modules so it could reset them with the new modules.  The second time it wanted to verify what I wanted to do about the MySQL confs; the diff showed minor changes, and I liked my version better.  Default is to retain, I thought that was a nice touch.

… continued later …

A couple other bits went by then it wanted to reboot to finalize and switch to the new kernel.  Everything went swimmingly.

Then overnight, my laptop ended up in a pool of water, sorry this post is late :o
