Ubuntu 9.04 Released

[Sushubh]

i have been writing to ntfs for years now still. they give no guarantee i believe because its all reverse engineered? i can say however that i have never faced problems on ntfs partition even if computer rebooted during writing on the ntfs partition

Ok.So ,Should I apt-get upgrade to jaunty (whatever) ?

I'd suggest waiting a day or two for the release then download full ISO via bittorrent (as suggested officially) to get full speed... i usually prefer fresh installs and apt-get will be very slow what with the whole world downloading during the release time

still. they give no guarantee i believe because its all reverse engineered?

yea there is still likely bugs due to it being reverse engineered, but so far luckily i havent noticed anything (unless its silently corrupting my precious data on NTFS partitions!)
