Everything Jonathan Marsden said is exactly right, is there still any confusion?

Hi Lance,
Finally I can tell who is kansasnoob :)
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I saw it before (but honestly did not read it all) and I just read it now.

One thing I'm in doubt about it:I have Lubuntu 12.04 installed and it's up and running. I have done all the updates and upgrades (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11559293&postcount=23) and now, I want to use "zsync" that I already installed. From my understanding to all this, I just need to do this:


zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/20111222/precise-desktop-i386.iso.zsync

>From Terminal and that is all, right?
Now, as per your post that you mentioned (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11334389&postcount=4) and as per this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage ;... "zsync" will NOT update the installed system but will update the previously downloaded iso so that you'll get the LATEST Daily Image and then you just need to burn a CD and Install all over again, right? I just need to double check and make sure we are in the same page :)

Now, another doubt: What's the point from all the above if I do:

sudo apt-get upgradeand
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Isn't that enough?
Sorry of my questions are so silly but I'm very new in testing. Last time I tested Lubutnu 11.10 Beta 2 and that was for 10 days or more so didn't learn much stuff at that time. I'm very much willing to learn and understand more at the moment.

Thank you in advance and I wish whatever I do will help Lubuntu and Lubuntu Users. Yes, I know I did nothing yet but I'm doing my best.
Regards,amjjawad/A.J

Did you see my post late into Oneiric final testing:

If any of that is the least bit confusing please PM me. You seldom, actually almost never, need to DL an entire new iso - but you will have to burn a new disc!

I appreciate your contribution to Lubuntu and I'll be glad to help you in any way I can.

Sorry if my previous Email caused any confusion.

I have downloaded The Daily Build (08-12) - more details here:http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11535501&postcount=18


I was just wondering whether I have to keep downloading and installing from time to time? or just upgrade using zsync?

Hope it's clear now :)

Not sure I really understand what you're saying here but, if you already have an ISO of Precise I would use zsync to update to Alpha1 or to a daily whichever you require as you realise it saves bandwidth and time.
