Sébastien, Amen to your prayer. I salute the industry of Ubuntu developers and followers, but these corrupting, recommended updates and upgrades are driving me to the realization Ubuntu should not yet be in the public domain. Like me, you have read that we should install Ubuntu straight in, that is, avoid Wubi. A straight install displaces the Windows boot loader, however. We would be dependent on GRUB to boot both OS. What are we to do after the next GRUB or Linux kernel update, when GRUB fails to boot Ubuntu /and/ Windows? Exactly whose assurance am I, a programming neophyte, to accept that GRUB is invulnerable to update subversion when integrated into a straight Ubuntu install, be my external file system NTFS or no, be my Ubuntu partition above or below 4 GIG? I detect no plainly trustworthy Ubuntu authority. Rather, it is distributed over an ad hoc network of volunteers. Is like a leaderless, silent Quaker Meeting. Ubuntu is nearly as inscrutable and amorphous. Is certainly better that Boeing produced my 777.
