I am running ubuntu 8.04.1 on this machine. Update Manager siad there
were updates available and after looking them over, I allowed them. A
restart was required and I had it do that. Then I got busy. I was
about to leave when I noticed the machine was waiting at the login
screen. Since I was about to leave, I choose to shutdown from the
login screen rather than logging in. I figured starting up later
would be just as good.
During shutdown, the machine started beeping at me like something was
wrong. Messages flashed by rapidly but I did see the word failure
several times. So my question is whether skipping the login on a
required restart is a bad idea???\\
BTW, I started it up again and everything seemed to go normally
including a normal login.
