2015-11-18 04:31:00 Flames_in_Paradise description Hello shortlog: If a new user installs ubuntu and as post-installation task runs the available updates there is big chance he'll be getting a new Kernel tool – this means that the initRAMFS will be updated. Depending on the Hardware equipment, this can be a rather timely + CPU consuming process. The chance to believe the PC stalls is at high risk w/o visual feedback. If the electricty or internet-connection fails to work - and the process was interupted, the system will call for a $ E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem If the user does so, he gets no visul feedback in terms of a progressbar - this could be possible! Remember the Knoppix CD, where the boot-process in itself is visible? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPsFmMFwScU @ 5min11sec It can build trust to see that a process is evolving - even the Redomond-guys respect this with W10 - giving a feedback to the user - not just a blinking cursor. Thinking this would not be to timely to implement. Thanks for making Ubuntu better every day! Hello shortlog: If a new user installs ubuntu and as post-installation task runs the available updates he certainly gets a new Kernel too – this means that the initRAMFS will be updated.

It can build trust to see that a process is evolving - even the Redmond-guys respect this - still with W10 - giving a feedback to the user - not just a blinking cursor.
