HELP: TOTAL system Update - howto... and how to
I used both 'knoppix-installer-latest-web' and 'knoppix-installer' and found differences.
'knoppix-installer-latest-web' did not set up my grub properly. I goto (mounting the installed partition) /boot/grub/ and there is no menu.lst file.
'knoppix-installer' installs my grub ok. There's a menu.lst file.
How can one get this menu.lst file if one took the 'knoppix-installer-latest-web' route?
------------
Okay, from 'knoppix-installer' route I chose 'Debian Install Type', and 'ext3' as my file-system. After doing a 2 hour:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
I chose 'Yes' to use 'Maintainers settings/config files' (opposed to the default 'No: keep current settings/config files').
I reboot. And the 'ypbind' takes years to complete. But I eventually get my login screen. I login, however it hangs on the '2nd icon: Initialising system stuff...' then goes back to login screen. Woes! Someone help! Should I have chosen 'No: keep current settings' to all those 'apt-get upgrade questions'?
PS: Is there any way to make 'apt-get upgrade' automatically chose No (or an option) for ALL questions?
