In the control center under System, I have the option: "Install RELEASE". Why do I have this? Yes, I did have Natty Beta2 previously, but since it's official release today I would assume I now have the Release Candidate installed as I have done all the available updates.
View 5 RepliesIn previous versions, there was an 'advanced' button where you could select NOT to install grub. I can't find that in the latest Natty release iso's. Is it no longer an option? And if not, WHY? I find myself reloading Natty quite often on a test partition to play with various parameters in my attempt to get it working as needed. But I'd really prefer to have the option to no reload grub.

Code:
Alt+F2
and type
Code:
update-manager -d
This should show the option to upgrade to the latest alpha release of natty. Through the terminal this can be done using the same command but you need use.
Code:
sudo
or
Code:
sudo -s
to do this.
I installed the RC of Lucid on an old AMD X2 5600 w/4GB DDR2 ram, and put it in the other room and installed LAMP on it to use as a local development server. It works beautifully over the network.
1. There will be an upgrade option to go from RC to final release, right?
2. When upgrading, will this kill my LAMP install? I really don't wanna go from scratch now that I have it all up and running with a load of CMS systems installed for test environments
I have been trying to use the amd64 version of the natty mini iso installer. The installer crashes with the log stating bad address us.archive.ubuntu.com. This is true for any archive I select. error is: mirror does not support the specified release (natty) Anyone know of a working mirror or if one will ever work? Not a confidence builder in the development.
I also tried the Maveric version of the mini iso. It also crashes with complaints about a bad kernel. So far a wasted day. Just add to this I tried the normal natty iso. The problem is in the manual partitioning. It locks up solid while trying to set partitions. Is there a later release of the iso?
After upgrading to Natty, my Alt/Win meta key option is no longer working.
I'm using System Settings -> Keyboard -> Layouts -> Options -> Alt/Win key behavior and selecting "Meta is mapped to Win keys".
However the Win key still just pops up the files-and-folders window, and meta is not there.
This worked fine in 10.10. Need this with Emacs...
I installed Maverick alongside Windows 7. Then I upgraded Maverick to Natty, removed and reinstalled the latest kernel and ubuntu-desktop using Synaptic Package Manager. But now GRUB does NOT show any option to boot into Ubuntu Natty.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the latest release, burned a disk and successfully booted. When it comes time to choose a partition I don't have the option of replacing the old release. I can install in parallel leaving both but can't use the whole disk. Interestingly enough I CAN replace the windows installation. Of course I already have Grub installed but I don't see how this would affect installing. I read the article here [URL] and it seems I may have missed a step. However it's implied I will lose the current Grub installation. Is that the case?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSince yestarday, wireless net stop working with my laptop hp compaq 6720S, dual boot vista/karmic.
In jaunty i had the gnome network manager fully working.
When i upgraded to karmic (last october), gnome network manager connected and disconnected the wireless all the time, doing internet unusable.
I fixed the problem installing wicd. I had wireless fully working.
But since yesterday, wicd cannot obtain ip address from wireless and when it can, connects and disconnects net all the time (behaving like gnome network manager). I have reported the problem in this network and wireless forum but yet i cannot obtain answer.
Well, my question is, as gnome network manager from jaunty worked, could i install this gnome network manager release in karmic to fix wireless?.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI installed Natty Narwhal from a pendrive I set up, which was a bit of a messy install to begin with. However, after booting into Ubuntu, this application called "Install RELEASE" appears. When I run it, it shows up just like I'm installing Ubuntu again. After following it through, it will stop and say that it must unmount /. It offers two options, Go Back, or Continue. Picking either does nothing. This hasn't seemed too big an issue. I can still run it fine. However, the Software Centre is an issue. Whenever I try to download something from it, I get this error:

This may be too late, but, Do not under any circumstances install or Upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 Natty, it is the buggiest distro they have ever produced, it is better to stick to 10.04, it's far more stable and stuff just works. Natty use a new desktop called Unity, that is totally useless, there are ssh issues that prevent logging to a remote terminal using a public key, Natty is just useless. I'm going to have to backup my ~ directory and reformat then re-install 10.4, until such times as Natty is fixed!. Check the launchpad bugs section and you'll see there are more complaints about Natty then any other Ubuntu version.
