Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy to 7.04 Fiesty

Last night I began an edgy to fiesty upgrade using `sudo update-manager 
-c -d' as far as upgrades go it's a gui based no-brainy.

However it failed first go because it said I didn't have enough space in 
/boot. After deleting all the kernels that didn't match `uname -r ' and 
cleaning up / to give myself some breathing space, it was all go.

Then I came in to see how it went this morning and the download hadn't 
completed. Sometimes things aren't as easy as you think they will be. A 
core switch in my ISP's (Exetels) internet link providers(Telstra) 
network had failed at 4:06 am this morning and it's only just come back 
up ~9:30am.

So now I'm sitting here watching a progress bar...

Using Ubuntu makes me feel like a populist. It seems everywhere on the 
net there are howto's on using Ubuntu.
