I updated my system, backed up my home folder and ran the following to back up my installations:
dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages I saved it to my home folder and ran the following after a clean install of the beta. sudo dpkg --set selections < ~my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect- upgrade This will download and install all your applications, except those manually installed, although they may be in the repository. It worked for me, and the new install is working as it should. -- Karmic boot hangs before login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428920 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
