Is 12.04 beta2 updated = released 12.04?

[candtalan]

I have been running 12.04 beta 2 and updating it frequently. Now the full 12.04 release is out, I am not exactly sure if I am, in effect, running the normal 12.04. I am aware that a clean install has certain benefits, but is there anything unusual, that I should know, about rolling over from a beta 2 into full release situation as I have done?

If you have updated the beta2 release then you now have the released 12.04

Hi, same thing here. I installed the beta 2 and all available updates. do-release-upgrade, update-manager etc. tells me that new release is not available, but it seems that I already have 12.04 LTS.


$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release: 12.04
Codename: precise

$ cat /etc/issue.net
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

$ uname -r
3.2.0-24-genericLooks OK, but Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ships with an updated v3.2.14 kernel, right? As you can see in my case it is 3.2.0-24. It is normal or I should wait few more days? Thanks and I apologize for asking a question that is already on the forum, but I do not know if everything is OK, or should I install from scratch?

That is fine. You have Ubuntu 12.04

Nice. Why there was no information about the availability of an update, I mean from beta 2 to 12.04 release (e.g. in update-manager)? And what about kernel? Why kernel version has not changed?

Actually, 3.2.0-24-generic is the newest kernel. Maybe you upgraded your system while being semi-conscious :lolflag:

@zombifier25 maybe, that's possible :-) The 3.2.0 kernel is latest/newest, right? So why the official description of 12.04 release, mentioned that Ubuntu is using updated 3.2.14 kernel?
