Savannah Hackers, Since frontend1 is running well as the current production web UI system. The upgrade and switchover there means the other system frontend2 is idle. Time to upgrade it. And to keep upgrading the other system and flipping between them.
I upgraded frontend2 to the same Trisquel 10. Both systems are now upgraded to Trisquel 10. With the goal of upgrading frontend2 to Trisquel 11 immediately following. However there is a small snag in the kernel upgrade on frontend2. This is the same snag as I saw in the frontend1 upgrade. It's identical symptoms. The upgrade installed the new Linux version 5 kernel, up from version 4, but did not upgrade the symlinks needed to boot it. Therefore I have not rebooted the system to the new kernel yet. Monday I will get in the queue with sysadmin to have help addressing this. With frontend1 it had the same problem and the fix wasn't completely trouble free and needed someone with console and kvm access to fix the configuration and ensured it would boot. Bob
