What a beautiful morning....



From time to time it's a good idea to update && upgrade your system.
In my case, it's Debian Lenny.

So, what did i do ?
Updated && upgraded && dist-upgraded via APT, changed the lenny parts to squeeze in /etc/apt/sources.list
Then updated && upgraded, aptitude install apt dpkg aptitude
cat /etc/debian_version gave me a clear 6.0.1

Everything fine?
No sir.

Rebooted and... my system started beeping every other second + flashed the screen like above.

Solution? I put away that machine and i'm using another right now. No time to fix and to be honest:

Maybe i should reinstall it, after years of just upgrading.

Maybe.


Now i took some time to get that problem fixed.
Reboot, Single user, aptitude update & upgrade.
Took another ~40 minutes but was worth it. System up and fine =)
