Hi All,
I'm going to try my hand at upgrading to UP5 via command line. Should I be using "aptitude dist-upgrade" or "aptitude upgrade"
Actually, if someone knows of a tutorial for command line upgrade instead of using Mint Update, that would be great. Didn't find what I was looking for via Google.
Thanks Much GeneC,
