Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
And I would like to clear this very common misconception. Installing Ubuntu WITHIN Windows is NOT the same as dual booting Ubuntu and Windows. The former doesn't change your partitions, the latter does, by definition. You can migrate from a Wubi installation to a TRUE dual boot. There is a HOWTO on the Ubuntu forums for the same.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
Narendra, wanted to install it within windows which works as dual boot with windows. At present ubuntu9.04 installed within Windows and works as dual boot with windows. So far no problems faced. Updating will carried out in ubuntu itself as usual. It is better to wait for another one month by the time 10.04 will be stable?

Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
I am not sure whether u can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 directly . Anyway all I can say is that YOU CANT UPGRADE YOUR UBUNTU WITH A LIVE CD . You should download the ALTERNATE CD iso image from the site and mount it . The package manager automatically asks if you want to upgrade the distro , once the mount is done .

Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
Hello! Why don't someone suggest a way to upgrade from the CD?? I have the iso file downloaded and a bootable Live Cd made of it. When you insert it when your machine is on the package manager detects it. I think the packages are detected and one can upgrade through the CD and then install the additional updates. I have not done the above procedure till now but am thinking to do so. Will be better if someone will guide me through. I run 8.04 and am want to install 10.04. Any help in this regards i sappreciated. Thank you. Ubuntu User, Danish Lala.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
I think it's better to do a fresh install because there have been lots of changes and new features e.g ext4 and grub2. ext4 is a lot faster than ext3 and grub2 makes it easy to find and add new kernels and operating systems installed on the system. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
