"apt-get dist-upgrade" will upgrade all packages, but won't upgrade to a new distribution. For example, if you run it on Precise it'll upgrade all installed packages to the latest versions available on Precise, but will *not* upgrade from Precise to some newer version of the distribution. This is exactly what you want. > sudo apt-get update > sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade > sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key > 3cb9fd148f374fef > sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://linuxcnc.org/ precise base 2.7-rtai" > sudo apt-get update > sudo apt-get -y install linux-image-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae > rtai-modules-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae > sudo apt-get -y install linux-headers-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae > reboot and hold the left shift key down to get to the boot menu > select advanced options and pick the 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae kernel > uname -r > should report 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae > open the synaptic package manager and remove the generic image and headers This recipe looks right to me.
