Which means: format the hard disk partition on which the older version resides, and install the later version cleanly on the empty partition.The reason for the change is, that Linux Mint currently uses only LTS versions of Ubuntu for base.

By Clem: Thanks, is there an ubiquity upstream bug report for this? Was this fix committed upstream? I am an 81 year old newbie; I want to check out linux mint; i have used unix years ago; however i haven’t the foggiest idea of how to load the latest copy of linuxmint and make it run. I am running a a 6 core, 64 bit acmi with an AMD processor. Can’t figure out how to make the copies of mint availble here to run – a little help?leegyoung@charter.net Hi Clem,No, this is my own fix and I didn’t commit that upstream.One thing is sure, the “offset=8” protects the UUID and the type indicator of the swap partition and does no harm. In worst case you waste a few kBytes at the beginning of your swap partition. Nice distro, but I think MATE is much better and much more customizable than the XFCE … also in most cases it uses less RAM. However, good job as always and congrats for both. brilliant work lads, love this operating system,really easy to install and really user friendly. thank you. I’ve been using Mint 17.2 Xfce as my main operating system since the release candidate came out and it looks like it’s the most stable system I ever used. Chapeau! Is there a special reason why mint 17.2 XFCE is released with kernel 3.16 instead of 3.19 like Xubuntu? Still 8 letters to go and we’re finally rid of this girly name stuff. Makes you think all developers are sixteen year olds with Playboy centerfolds on their bedroom wall. Mint really deserves better than that.Edit by Clem: That’s what girl names make you think about? That’s sad. Clem, I really like the way Codenames are selected, but John’s comment about codenames (#27, I think.) make me wonder one thing… What will happen after Linux Mint reaches the codename Z? (eg. Zelena, Zoey [N.B: Personally, I really like this one!] or whatever name you choose)? Will the girl name secuence restart from letter A? Suggestion: Why don’t you begin a boy-name codename secuence after this one? hahaha. Greetings from Venezuela. Keep doing what you do, you are a bunch of awesome people developing an awesome OS! *Linux Mint 17.2 “Rafaela” – Cinnamon Version* Being a loyal open suseSUSE user i say this 17.2 made me change. change operating is a big deal.. \KEEP IT UP . AND GOOD LUCK .. KDE KDE KDE KDE i just love it!go on like that, really easy to install and really user friendly. thank you, brilliant work! Clement and some of the other key Mint developers are French, and the French name ROCKETS with women’s names, like the Ariane!
