Slightly off topic, but I hope I can be forgiven :) I have test server (actually a VM) running ubuntu 8.10 and the 7.4 nightly. I set up a cron job to download the nightly every day and install it - so far so good. The problem is, although the cron job runs (the file gets downloaded) and there are no errors in any logs anywhere I can find, the actual install doesn't happen. If I run the script manually from the command line (as root) it works just fine. Any clues from the linux experts?
