    So the literal line you put in includes *mirror-address* <-- or are you supposed to actually replace that with something?
  • chenhow · 8 months ago
    yes, you should replace *mirror-address* with your repository mirror server.. for example:

    before change /etc/apt/sources.list:
    deb http://sg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-security main restricted

    after:
    deb http://localhost:9977/sg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubu... jaunty-security main restricted

    what if i dont want to format my /home partition, then i should not able to use ext4 filesystem for upgrade?
  • chenhow · 8 months ago
    I believe it won't format the partition when upgrading the OS.
