Sure, the package is now available in my PPA at deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mvo/ubuntu hardy main the name is "sandbox-upgrader". There are two scripts included: - usr/bin/sandbox-clone-to-vm - usr/bin/sandbox-test-upgrade the former will create a (slightly simplified) clone of your system that you can then use kvm to boot into and do whatever you want (e.g. testing a upgrade :) The second one will perform the clone and then run a upgrade test and copy the result. If you are interessted in testing, that is of course very welcome. You will need a kvm capable system and some diskspace, it clones your full system (excluding most of /home/). The UI is not that great currently (the progress reporting etc are not really good yet) but the functionatliy should be there. > And can you please take a look at "update manager lines are unreadable" > (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249335) I suspect its a driver/theme bug, I followed up in the bugreport.
