  1. Re: 19.10 Ubuntu live image has a persistent write behaviour by default, why not r/o*

    I will, too.

    Re: upgrade from 19.04 to 19.10

    The upgrade process per se went well, so to speak, and indeed, a crash in the middle of the process would have been worse imho. I think one important rule is when one gets a warning about replacing a...

    Getting rid of Microsoft's shim*?

    Dear forum readers,

    From what I understand, in UEFI mode when booting Ubuntu, a so-called shim signed by Microsoft is loaded first, which then loads the boot loader proper. That's because when...
