| jimcooncat | how do I take a full dapper installation back down to a "server" install? aptitude purge xserver-xorg? | 12:46 |
| infinity | Uhm, you pretty much don't try. | 12:46 |
| infinity | But if you look at everything that "ubuntu-desktop" depends on and remove all of those packages, that's a good start. | 12:47 |
| infinity | It'll leave a lot of libraries behind, etc. | 12:47 |
| jimcooncat | I'm renting a "computer" from a uml web host | 12:47 |
| jimcooncat | they have a full dapper install, but they also have debian sarge | 12:48 |
| infinity | They seriously do a full install on a colo machine? That's just wrong. | 12:48 |
| jimcooncat | maybe I could work from their little sarge install to upgrade to dapper? | 12:48 |
| infinity | We provide the minimal and server installs for that very reason. | 12:48 |
| infinity | Can't you just ask them to pick the "server" option on the Ubuntu install CD? | 12:49 |
| jimcooncat | I guess some people like to use it for testing, vnc, or whatever | 12:49 |
| infinity | (Which doesn't install the server kernel, unless it's a server CD, but it won't install all the desktop junk) | 12:49 |
| jimcooncat | I have to use one of the providers custom kernels anyway | 12:50 |
| infinity | Anyhow, were I in your place, I wouldn't care what they installed, Debian or Ubuntu, because I'd just debootstrap a new root filesystem, move it into place, make grub happy, and reboot. | 12:50 |
| infinity | Oh, right, UML. You can't do that either. | 12:50 |
| infinity | Not as easily, anyway. | 12:51 |
| infinity | Well, I suppose you can, the steps are just different. | 12:51 |
| jimcooncat | maybe I'll just stick with sarge and backports then | 12:51 |
| jimcooncat | just would be nice to have all my computers on dapper | 12:51 |
| infinity | Well, upgrading a minimal sarge installation to dapper should be fairly drama-free. | 12:51 |
| jimcooncat | really. just change repos and dist-upgrade? | 12:51 |
| infinity | I did sarge->breezy->dapper with no real issues. | 12:52 |
| infinity | Yeah, if it's a base install, there aren't many packages there anyway. And most of the complex upgrade paths should be skipped. | 12:52 |
| jimcooncat | I did a dist-upgrade from warty to breezy with no probs on their system | 12:52 |
| jimcooncat | good, I'll give it a shot then. I've no investment in the current install. | 12:53 |
| jimcooncat | thanks for your help, infinity | 12:53 |
| infinity | NP | 12:53 |
