    How to I update without dist-upgrade?

    I tried the standard display. I get the gui (yeah!) but its horrible. Tiny (easily fixed) but the mouse doesn't track so you have two mouse pointers and they move at different rates. So some kind of incompatibility with CentOS 5? B/c same settings work fine w/ CentOS 6.

    Restored another CentOS5 VM, back to getting the VMs start (see the PROXMOX logo, start RedHat, black screen with Proxmox, nothing), then just hang.

    How to I update without dist-upgrade?

    I would like to update my fresh 4.3 installation without going to 4.4. Is this possible with apt-get upgrade or will that mix some 4.3 and 4.4 stuff? Background - tried out 4.4 and most of my VMs wouldn't start, couldn't get any info/answers here so I have done a reinstall to 4.3.

    Incomplete info for shrinking raw disk

    I am trying to shrink a VM raw disk but have so far not been able to find all the steps/pieces to make it actually work. I can get the LVM filesystem down to the desired size, but getting the actual raw disk file to shrink results in not being able to boot. Here are the steps taken with what I...

    vzdump not working as expected on fresh install but was in prevous versions

    I found it - in /var/log/secure was a root login and shutdown. This was caused by an old server (still running for testing) that was shutting things down. Duh!
