[pve-devel] [PATCH proxmox-ve 2/3] apt hook: mention that console/ssh should be used for major upgrade

[Fabian Ebner]

There were a few reports of people trying to upgrade via the virtual
console running into problems, because it would be interrupted. The
latest one is [0], although I'm speculating that it might not have
been the cause of all the reported problems in this case.
