Ubuntu 7.10 Laptop Upgrade

Posted by Michael Thu, 18 Oct 2007 09:42:00 GMT

I just upgraded my IBM T41 to Ubuntu 7.10 by doing:

update-manager -c

from the command line. This forces a dist-upgrade check and runs through a pretty slick upgrader. 20 mins and 1 reboot later and she’s back and running without any issues at all.

Very sweet. I love it when things just work.

    20 minutes? What? Do you have some sort of fiber optic cable running into your house? My upgrade is dragging along. I think I’ll wait a few days …

    Actually yes, I have FIOS at work and at home.
