Plans for upgrading Fritz to Debian Squeeze
1. Preliminaries
Release Note Information of Upgrading From Lenny.
2. Installation environment
su to root, start a screen session (preventing partial upgrade issues if the network connection drops)
- Open a physical console root login just in case
3. Installation Steps
3.1. Upgrade Kernel and udev
Install new kernel image and openafs-module-dkms
Install udev
- Reboot
3.2. Basic Upgrade
apt-get upgrade
- Reboot?
3.3. Full Upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
- Reboot?
3.4. Clean Up
- Make sure the other machines are still sane after losing volume access for a while.
4. Caveats
4.1. pam_unix_session locking all login access
This bit us on hopper. ClintonEbadi has confirmed this is not an issue on fritz.
4.2. Locally built packages
Todo: someone needs to scan fritz for locally built packages (krb5 and openafs?) and make sure we have an upgrade path for them.
