Automated Ubuntu update script.

[serial#]

Run in terminal:



wget http://updateubuntu.webs.com/Update.py && chmod a+x Update.py && ./Update.py

I'm not sure anyone should just run this script blindly. They may not want to do a distribution upgrade without backing up first etc etc.


#!/usr/bin/env python

Added the option for dist-upgrade. And updated it as well on the site.
