Upgrading from Linux Mint 13 to 14
- Backup data I care about
- Note packages applied to Mint 13
- Fresh Install of Mint 14
- Restore data
- Install required packages
Best Practices
- Do everything from a script vs. use gui tools.
Add item to Linux Mint start menu and run as Root
Right click start menu icon (lower left)
Select "edit menu"
edit properties of new or existing item
put "gksudo" in front of command that is to be run when item is selected.
This will prompt for root password before the command is run.
