- rbanffy 13y agoJust the time you spend not working and making backups, doing the upgrade and dealing with the various historical artifacts it leaves behind will end up costing more than the license. The last time I upgraded my Fedora box (with fedup) I spent most of the duration working uninterrupted, then had the upgrade perform itself over lunch. The last time I did it on Ubuntu, I worked throughout the process, only having to stop for the reboot required to switch between major kernel versions. Minor kernel changes happen without rebooting.
