Hello!

I already got KH 20.2, and i waited on only one thing. Its a support of Ubuntu 20.04. Really cool!

But here is a question.

Is there a script for installation of 20.04 from KeyHelp? Or i have to install it normally through CLI?

Basically, i dont want to lose any data (user accounts, databases, email accounts etc), so i want to be sure, i will install it without any problems and if possible with a link by KeyHelp!

Thanks!

Yes, you need a upgrade script. You can find it here when it's available -> https://www.keyhelp.de/en/documentation/

Please be patient until it's available.

Also how long does it can take? As a fan of KeyHelp and a new Ubuntu will be happy, if it will be in a few days/weeks.

The standard support for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ends in april 2023. This is the latest when the script will be ready. :roll:
(*SCNR*)

It will be released when it's ready.

I have started today and i am at 30%, expect the release somewhere during Monday/Tuesday next week.

EDIT:

The Ubuntu guys delayed the Ubuntu 20 point release - I did not know this till now, sorry. Therefor also the upgrade-script has to wait until this point.

=> I will prepare everything so it is ready for the August 6, but because of a required test period, I probably will not release before the August 10th.

In case you are wondering where is the promised upgrade script to 20.04:

So far the Ubuntu guys have only released a development version of their dist-upgrade routine.
There is currently no non-development routine.

Of course, I could add the "-d" flag to the "do-release upgrade" routine, this would use the development version for the upgrade process, but for the sake of your servers' stability I only want to work with a fully released dist-upgrade, not a development release. I think you will agree with this point.

When Ubuntu will release their live version is up to them and is out of reach for KeyHelp. But it may only be a few days until their release. After that I can release the dist-upgrade script.


For more on that topic, find more information H E R E.
