Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH proxmox-ve 2/3] apt hook: mention that console/ssh should be used for major upgrade
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 14:04:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210913120446.23392-4-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210913120446.23392-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com>

There were a few reports of people trying to upgrade via the virtual
console running into problems, because it would be interrupted. The
latest one is [0], although I'm speculating that it might not have
been the cause of all the reported problems in this case.
