http://askubuntu.com – Another question with this URL: How do I upgrade from 10.04 or 11.10 to 12.04? Has this: If you choose to upgrade before then, you can pass the -d option to the upgrade tool, running do-release-upgrade -d or update-manager -d, to upgrade from vanilla 10.04 to 12.04. Am I correct in assuming that if I am actually running 10.04.4 (not vanilla?) that the above command line instructions would NOT work? I really do not mind waiting for the GUI Update Manager to show me the availability at 12.04.1 in July. I am just curious. (HowTos)

Stories similar to LTS to LTS Upgrade

Currently using 11.10 on a new dell vostro 2420 laptop and wanted to upgrade to 12.04.01lte.

Using the update manager and clicking the upgrade option first came up with a 'failure to authenticate' message and after a restart of the computer I click the upgrade and it will download 2 files then the popup closes and no further prompts/screens come up.

I am wishing to upgrade to 12.04.1, but my package manager does not list an upgrade as available. I have tried running $sudo apt-get update and $sudo apt-get upgrade without any luck.

Anyone know what I need to do to upgrade to 12.04.1?

[ubuntu] upgrade to 11.10 42 weeks 2 days ago

By mistake i checked on Donot upgrade to 11.10, when a POP Up window displayed, while running Ubuntu.

Now the option of upgrade to 11.10 does not show in the Update manager.

How do i enable it so that I can upgrade.

I am running 11.10 on my PC. The Update Manager once indicated that I could upgrade to 12.04 LTS. However, clicking the upgrade button made the update manager unresponsive and I had to force quit the app. The next time I started the app, it showed me all the updates except for 12.04. Is there anyway I can upgrade to 12.04??

12.04 64-bit on my laptop, keeps telling me to upgrade, telling me to close my apps and press OK to upgrade. But I don't want to upgrade. How do I get it to stop?

When I run Update Manager I keep getting this message.

My update manager does not give me the option to upgrade to Ubuntu 12.10. That is, the "New distribution release '12.10' is available. Click Upgrade and follow the on-screen instructions" section is not shown.

I had the same problem upgrading to 12.04. Spent hours trying to upgrade the system, got lucky somehow, don’t definitively know how.

After hearing about some of the features in 12.10, I decided to upgrade my Ubuntu from 12.04 LTS to the newer 12.10.

Now Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) LTS(Long time support) beta1 has released and the final stable version will be released on April 29, 2010.Here is how to upgrade from Ubuntu 9.10 or 8.04 LTS. To upgrade from Ubuntu 9.10 on a desktop system:

has there ever been any talk of being able to upgrade via live CD/DVD ??? I am just curious if that would may e be a little less buggy than the update manager. I'm not knocking the update manager cuz I wouldn't have 11.10 without it as for some reason (and I believe its just a lack of drivers for newer hardware) the 11.10 disk won't even boot on my computer.
