After upgrading my Ubuntu box I find that everytime I boot up I see alot of items on my GRUB list.

So I decided to delete the useless ones.

So just so that I wont forget next time here’s how I did it:

Hit ALT+F2 then type the following & run:

gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

i want to watch the full film of 127 hours online

Scroll down to the bottom of the page. Select & delete the ones you dont want.

Here’s a screenshot of my case:

I deleted the ones that I have selected (highlighted) & “Save” the file.

Reboot & there you go. All those useless items are gone!

I finally decided to upgrade my 8.04 (Hardy Heron) to 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope)

It’s AWESOME!! I love Ubuntu & I love linux OS! I can really feel the huge difference on 9.04 compared to 8.04.

Here’s a tutorial on How-To Upgrade to your latest Ubuntu distribution, in my case Ubuntu 9.04 using Torrent.

The first thing I did was:

hi-def quality the tourist

Go to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate

Then, I download:

due date movie hd download

ubuntu-x.xx-alternate-i386.iso.torrent

* I assume that you are on i386 platform.

Since I do not want to waste my CD/DVD, i mounted the ISO file directly from terminal by typing:

movie going the distance on dvd

sudo mount -o loop /location/of/ubuntu-x.xx-alternate-1386.iso /media/cdrom0

And then from terminal, I typed the following:

gksu sh /cdrom0/cdromupgrade

Lasty, we wait untill all the updating & installing is completed, restart your computer and there you go. Full upgrade yo!

Here’s a screenshot of my desktop:

Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope)

Why do people tend to run away from me? Am I that bad of a person? Do I get judged that easily? Fuck lah okay! Yup, right in the asshole. nuff said.

The last 2 months, work/business  has been going from bad to worse. The  recession has finally kicked me on the head, really hard. Yep, I think I’m going mad! Where’s Achmed when you need him? Read only if you’re interested to know :)
