A good one except that you'll need sudo if you're not root (a mistake

Comments can kiss my ass.  There are almost 15+ lines of comment for
two simple options: LTS (self explained obviously) and Normal (Another
self explained option.)  If you forget said two options, go buy a Mac
because you obviously need to be on something that explains everything

I agree but thought that I'd point it out.


All truth about comments aside, yes, I did forget sudo part, mostly
because I copy and pasted it directly from a white paper turned tutorial
I recently did on how to upgrade servers properly when the kernel is
locked out.  Next time I shall pay closer attention. Bug fixed.

I forget to prepend sudo when I post because I generally use "sudo -i"
when I'm not at work... Nothing personal.
