Interesting. Now I see how one does this.
1. canonical-kernel-team ppa
2. xubuntu-dev ppa.
So, do you install the current release, stick in the ppa repos and what?
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade OR
is it release-upgrade?
Thanks.

Hi,
I usually go bold and run the early development version of the next
release. Is there anything I should look for in 16.10 Yakkety alpha?
canonical-kernel-team ppa and xubuntu-dev ppa work fine. Nice to be on
kernel 4.6.0.
Thanks

If you're worried about any problems and issues you really shouldn't run an
alpha Release.
I mean...it's alpha for a reason...

I'm not worried. Just wondering ... I'll can it now.

The obvious thing to look for in a development release is problems :)
About the only reason I can think of to run yakkety at such an early
stage is to help find and fix bugs.
You might want to consider running yakkety in a VM or container, and
have a regular release as a base. That way you can help with testing,
have access to the newer packages and use a more stable system for
everyday tasks.

As Petter says - look for bugs - and report them :)
If you're happy running with the dev version - do it - I'll not argue
about that.
I do that - and in fact set yakkety up the day after xenial was released.
I would though make sure you've either got another yak build running
behind on updates, or a previous and supported version.
You'll find that the dev mailing list [1] is where you'll see mails
about what's going on with the development version.
You might want to consider actually being in contact with us - it's not
often that we find someone who's testing dev version outside where we
normally look :) [2,3]

Hi Kev,
Okay no problem. I'm on the list and I'll contribute any bugs or
quirks. I can dig up another machine and run xenial on it if I have to.
Thanks
