[12:59] <Mark8> can anyone tell me where I can find the information to install 19.04 over 18.04 without loosing what I have?
 Why do you want to install over a LTS version?
[13:38] <Mark8> no reason really, just want to see what’s new
 Ok. I would recommend: first backup your /home folder.... then if possible set /home as a separate partition... then you are safe to upgrade
[15:24] <MarshallT> if I want to upgrade from studio16.04 to studio 18.04 do I do it through the software updater or some other way? I don’t want it to put regular ubuntu 18.04 on my machine. And yes I'm new to this trying to learn. Thanks!
 yes.... usually there is a "software updates" tool... an there you can tell it to update
[15:27] <MarshallT> ok so just like the updater in regular ubuntu?
 yes
[15:27] <MarshallT> ok Thank you!
[23:52] <paul40> I am installing Ubuntu Studio 18.04 LTS. It won't let me log in as root! What is going on?
[23:52] <paul40> I ma trying to log in as root through the console
[23:54] <Eickmeyer> paul40: Login as root on any Ubuntu is disabled. Login as your user and use sudo.
[23:54] <Eickmeyer> !root | paul40
[23:57] <paul40> The link you refer me to says that the root password is locked by *default*. I think this is to prevent newbies from hurting themselves. I'm OK. Is there a method to unlock the password?
[23:58] <Eickmeyer> paul40: There isn't one. It's completely disabled in all Ubuntu systems.
