Hi,
recently I can’t created droplet by API with User Data. User Data is not executed. When I tried run commands manually I noticed that after
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
ubuntu shows me statement
A new version of /boot/grub/menu.lst is available, but the version installed
currently has been locally modified.
What would you like to do about menu.lst?
* install the package maintainer's version
* keep the local version currently installed
* show the differences between the versions
* show a side-by-side difference between the versions
* show a 3-way difference between available versions
* do a 3-way merge between available versions (experimental)
* start a new shell to examine the situation
<Ok>
How can I prevent to shows this statement or HowCan I click 'OK’in the User Data commands?

Adding the following to your user-data shell script should do the trick:
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive;
This sets the environment for apt to be noninteractive and will automatically accept the default on most things like this that the -y flag alone may not.
