Can't update. Do I have to reinstall?

[Xenaflux]

something is fishy :-)

If there are updates for you, depends a little on what you have installed, isn't it?

If you are using PASS you won't have seen any updates for a while.

Not to undermine your excellent quote, but if you read through my post in its entirety, you might realize that I have given adequate provision for the scenario you mention above.

Well, reinstalling will be fun.

And when you are finished having fun, it may be a good idea to make a remaster or use clonezilla to make a backup.

Unless, of course, you like to reinstall having fun   

Even a remaster would not have helped him out in this situation. Just saying. 

True, true, true...

What a re-master could have done for him (even in this situation), would be to give him a reference he could boot into, even after re-installing with the 2011.9 ISO from which to determine what additional apps he installed, and what (if any) system-wide customizations were made...

I indeed use PASS, so that sheds some light on things.
