| kichigai | Hello all. I'm trying to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04, but the network upgrade method leaves me in like a mid-version limbo because of some weird issues involving third party packages (I haven't added any repos, but I did enable the non-free stuff, like MP3). | 00:15 |
|---|---|---|
| kichigai | Is it possible to leapfrog from 12.04 to 14.04 using the install DVD? | 00:15 |
| tgm4883 | kichigai: I usually recommend a backup/restore over an upgrade | 01:43 |
| kichigai | tgm4883, how do I do that? I read up on how to backup my databases, but does that preserve my recording schedules, recoding data, etc? | 01:50 |
| kichigai | My recording drives are external, so I'm not worried about that, but all the info about my recorded shows, etc. | 01:51 |
| tgm4883 | kichigai: Should just need to: Backup the DB, install fresh, restore DB, and as long as the storage is mounted in the same location it should pick all that back up | 01:55 |
| tgm4883 | kichigai: also backup any custom files you have (eg. lirc, etc) | 01:56 |
| kichigai | tgm4883, well, fortunately the only ones of thsoe I've messed with was my Samba config, so I think that ought to be pretty easy to recreate. | 01:56 |
| tgm4883 | should be pretty easy then | 01:57 |
| tgm4883 | kichigai: oh, and when you reinstall, make the hostname and IP address the same | 01:57 |
| tgm4883 | save yourself some hastle there :) | 01:57 |
| kichigai | I've got an assigned address for this sucker on DHCP, so that ought to be hard to screw up ;) | 01:58 |
| kichigai | tgm4883, thanks for the help. That's exactly what I needed to know. | 02:02 |
| hR13 | Hi all, I have just installed 14.04 on a new disk inorder to upgrade my old 10.04.3 system, but my novo t-500 cards dont load, and i cant find any modules for it to load... have I missed something ? | 13:11 |
| hR13 | I had accidently got the card tinted, now its firmly attatched to the mobo and its visable :-) | 13:24 |
