I am giving my parents a laptop for Christmas this year that I put Lenny
on and as I'm on the other side of the country, want to make sure they
stay on Lenny until I am home in the future to upgrade to Squeeze after
it officially becomes the Stable release. I've seen some emails about
using "Lenny" instead of "stable" in the /etc/apt/sources.list to force
aptitude to keep a Lenny system. Is this the official/accepted method?
This will work for a while,
For a value of "a while" about a year.
Cheers.
