If this is not fixed by tomorrow morning i guess i'll make my own Ubuntu distro like i did for my Nvidia rigs.
This auto updating should be optional in my opinion.
I use a customized Arch-based image - but if you don't wanna do that, IMO, give EthOS a try. Auto-update is not only fucking stupid from the POV of possible breakage, but if this OS is ever super popular, the mechanism will almost certainly be compromised and malicious updates pushed to all the poor bastards who use it.
I share your opinion on auto updates. I had perfectly stable rigs for over a month, and now that is out the window. I understand if Tytanick decides that he will only help troubleshoot rigs that are completely up to date, but for those of us that have a good thing going, let us be.
