New Mint-Update
Posted: Thu Jul 07, 2011 11:50 am
Using LMDE in a business environment on three desktops.
Decided to fresh install on one of them last evening - just to try the "latest repo" updates. Approx 1GB of updates downloaded satisfactorily. Mint update crashed twice during the installs - probably due to the heavy load - I expected this to happen -have seen similar before.
However, using "dpkg --configure -a", and then, "apt-get upgrade" after a reboot everything installed perfectly! Very impressed - all we need now is a new .iso updated with the new MU. I believe this would bring new users in, the massive amount of updates is offputting for some new folk.
