Although I had disabled the auto update of ubuntu 17.10. However, I see a window which says when do you want to reboot to install the updates!!

Is that normal?

  • Are the updates possibly coming from unattended-upgrades? Does systemctl status unattended-upgrades show anything?

    sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades or disable from systemctl should do it.
