| Book_em_Dano | Does anyone know the correct command to upgrade a computer to the most recent development release? xubuntu-docs states that the command is gksudo update-manager -c -d, but this is not correct. | 08:40 |

| kinygos | hi...i have a procedure for solving a specific problem to write up, but there is a page that is somewhat related, but doesn't provide enough information (at least for a noob)...in fact it wasn't really useful in my case....should i add a (lengthy) section to that page or create a new page...a key difference in the title will be my solution is especially useful when the server is remote with no access to external me | 22:54 |
| zkriesse | kinygos: Ok what are you asking on how to do? | 22:56 |
| kinygos | zkriesse: it took me a week to install RAID 1 on a remote server with ubuntu installed....there's a page on installing RAID on a running system, but it didn't give me anything i really needed to solve the problem | 22:59 |
| zkriesse | ok' | 22:59 |
| zkriesse | is this page on help.ubuntu.com/community? | 23:00 |
| kinygos | zkriesse: yeah | 23:00 |
| zkriesse | Ok so edit the page to include the neccessary info then! | 23:00 |
| zkriesse | Just make sure it's properly formatted | 23:00 |
| zkriesse | If you need help with that just lemme know or ask someone here | 23:00 |
| kinygos | it will make a real mess of the page...the original author has a process of some kind there, but my process is different (more steps, and in different order cos the server was remote) | 23:01 |
| zkriesse | Ok just edit it as you can get the info in there and then I'll walk ya through the proper format after it's edited | 23:02 |
| kinygos | or should write a new page that is specific to a remote server scenario? | 23:02 |
| kinygos | it's non trivial...installing RAID 1 | 23:03 |
| kinygos | (at least, the chaps in #ubuntu-server didn't think it was easy) | 23:03 |
| zkriesse | Just do what you think would make it most easy on someone new to doing this/wishing to do so | 23:04 |
| kinygos | ok, thanks zkriesse | 23:04 |
| zkriesse | Yep | 23:05 |
| kinygos | i'll write a new page, and if you think it needs to be merged, i'll do it | 23:05 |
| kinygos | (so it's my time taken) | 23:05 |
| zkriesse | After you're done let me know and we'll review it | 23:05 |
| kinygos | thanks :) | 23:05 |
| zkriesse | Yup | 23:05 |
| zkriesse | If you need a page renamed or something let me know about that too because as I wiki admin I can do that | 23:05 |
