6.10 is 4 years old. You'd have to follow a proper path by going to 7.04, 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, 9.10 and then 10.04 (or upcoming 10.10). All except 8.04 and 9.10 onwards are unsupported, so it would be really painful for you to move from 6.10 to 9.10 or above. I'd not advise it as it may break things. > I don't want to remove / backup and then upgrade. > > Is there any way to do this ??? Single '?' solves the same purpose as three '???' :-) I'd suggest you to do a complete re-install. If it's a production machine/server then you may want to use 10.04, or if you can wait for 10.10 (releasing 10th October 2010) to play around. But rest assured, there's a huge change between 6.10 and 10.x series, so there be prepared for a little learning curve if you're used to 6.10.
