Hello
Im new here and in linux. Im using antiX M11 since a couple of days ago. So far so good. Im happy with the learning curve that Im having with this distro.

My problem now is I want to upgrade it to antiX-12. So I did a 'apt-get dist-upgrade', but it simply responded that there is nothing to upgrade or any of the sort. Then I tried to 'apt-get install linux-image-3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp linux-headers-3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp'. But it just said that it couldnt locate or find any of those packages. Mind you that I did update it using apt-get before trying to upgrade.
What am I doing wrong? is there something that I misunderstand?

apt-get update and then apt-get dist-upgrade or apt-get install linux-image-3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp linux-headers-3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp

Yep. Just to make sure I tried it again. but still the same

hi again
I hope you are not busy, but you said yesterday that I should remind you to help me with my sources.list. I already know how to change it, but not what it should changed into.
Take care,
Gauden

Here is the sources.list for antiX
Now you must remove dave apps from your M11 version before upgrading or it will break.

apt-get purge dave-apps (I think that is what it is called)

Or if you simply want to install a new kernel

apt-get install linux-image-3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp

More information.

I just installed antiX-M11 to hard drive and then did a dist-upgrade without errors.

I then added the antiX repo to etc/apt/sources.list and did anothe apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

Error with installing ceni.

apt-get -f install
apt-get purge ceniwrapper
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

and all is well.

(so best to apt-get purge ceniwrapper before upgrading with antiX repo)

To install a new kernel, got a dkms.conf: Error!

Solution is to remove ndiswrapper-dkms and run

update-initramfs -k all -u -t

(You may get an error concerning the older kernel)

update-grub

reboot using new kernel and all should be ok.

Note: You may need to check your sudoers file allows sudo reboot sudo halt.

Hi everybody, hi anticapitalista.
I also tried to upgrade to antix 12 from antix 11. like gauden I cannot find the 3.5.0 kernel in the repositories.

Here are the active repositories in my sources.list (I swear I never touched the file __{{emoticon}}__ ):

I hope there is a simple solution to the issue.

Thank you very much indeed for the wonderful Os that antiX is!

Add the antiX repo (above) to your sources.list

Hi, I could not perform the upgrade to antix12.
What I did was:
- update && dist-upgrade
- Add the two repositories and get their gpg public keys
- remove ceniwrapper
- update && dist-upgrade
- remove ndiswrapper-dkms
- install 3.5.0-antix.2 and headers

Reboot. Slim shows up but my keyboard is dead (tried with another, a USB one, no luck).
Reboot in runlevel 3. No slim but command line. Keyboard works. No internet connection (thus I cannot update|upgrade). Any ideas?

In init 3 apt-get -f install or run ceni to begin with

Ceni always tells me it was not able to bring up eth0. If I try to use a static IP I still got no connection. Apt-get -f install doesn't actually do anything.
