Upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 via alternate installation CD.
I did this as the network upgrade although estimating 40 mins
initially ended up after 4 hours estimating something like 10 hours.
I am on 3mb ADSL which normally works fine. The CD downloaded in 40 minutes,
but when I click so as to not get updates from the network (message accompanied with this says network will not be used, or something like that), off it goes and starts downloading stuff from the network for an
hour or two.
You may gather I don't much like options that don't work as advertised.
Is anyone doing end-to-end tests ?
