I tried it and it didn't work.

Does it matter that I am running CentOS?

D'oh!

Sorry, my bad, I just tried the command here and all I got was:

Ubuntu Linux Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for Ubuntu and Debian Power Users by Christopher Negus and Francois Caen (Nov 28, 2007)
<snip>
$
and Ubuntu is *still* installed, it even echoed $? as 0

:-(

somewhere someone probably already has the script that is a series of "sudo apt-get purge"s and "sudo apt-get install"s to turn a standard Ubuntu install into something tolerable..?

purge *unity*...

(yes yes... "wget http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/6.0.5/ia64/iso-cd/deb..." ...)

I'm not sure downloading an ia64 install image is ever going to make things tolerable.
