[SOLVED] Mint 13 beta? upgradable to stable?

[MadOp]

Hi,

I am eager to replace my Mint 9 LTS soho server with the upcoming 13 version, so I was wondering if there is some beta/RC version available that I could install and eventually upgrade to the stable release.

I will be using a new box, so I can test it and take my time to tweak it untill it fits my needs or eventually wait for fixes in the stable version.


Thanks in advance.
MadOp.

Not available yet, but keep a close eye on the blog as a RC should be expected hopefully within a week or two. http://blog.linuxmint.com/

You can upgrade from the RC to final release, just considering that if there is any change in the installation steps between the RC and final (like fixing a bug affecting some people, or switching which applications get installed by default), those won't come to you (as you already installed). Other than that, you will get the same updates as the final release installation so if nothing changes in the installation steps, you would be running the same with RC as with final.
