I may need a little help to "test the latest upstream kernel" before I can say "yes".
Problem: I visited https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds and one of the first things I read is "These kernels are not supported and are not appropriate for production use." My server is a "production" server in the sense that if my system goes down, so does a lot of my house (phone service, internet access, design activity, etc). My estimation is about 2-days of full time effort to re-install to get it all configured and running again. So, do you have any good ways to restore the system back to the state it's at now? i.e. if I try the new kernel and either my production system won't work, or my production system won't boot. Or is there a way to clone the system I have now? Actually I may have just answered my own question, does Ubuntu have a "live DVD" so I can use "dd" to copy my boot SSD to another SSD for the new kernel "test" effort. Then if everything goes belly up, I can swap the original SSD back into the system to keep going (then copy "newer" email and logs off the defective installation back into the original production system. Any tips on how to make this "kernel test" as risk free and painless as possible? Being new to Ubuntu means I don't have full knowledge of the Ubuntu eco-system of tools, like "iw reg set US" or "apport-collect 1695829". As soon as I can reassemble my linux workstation, currently in pieces on the floor for new fan installs, my backup RAID array will again be available for "recovery" storage. Tips for quick/painless recovery if the new kernel fails and breaks my production system (where the testing has to happen)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1695829 Title: IP Subnet to internet routing fails 5x/day after latest 16.04 LTS updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1695829/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
