Hello!

You can upgrade directly from Ubuntu 8.04.4 to Ubuntu 10.04. For more
information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades and 
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading

Currently you can reinstall to the latest.. It's easier if you have a
separate /home partition.. or wait until the official upgrade via Upgrade
Manager is available..  it's been a while so I don't know why it's not
showing up.. perhaps a setting you have.. Maybe someone else can shed some
light on that.

Best,
Mark

[Ubuntu-US-CA] Upgrade question for the group

2010-05-21 Thread Donald Jacob
Hi,
I am running Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS and would like to upgrade. Do I have to reinstall
the latest version or is there a way that I can upgrade my version.

Thanks
Don

Okay, I completely respect this position.

By the way, Al is just a newbie who wants to give back, and who has a very
small law practice.  You know me, I wouldn't work for a big nasty law firm.
 We sue insurance companies.  But I still completely respect your position,
and so I am happy to drop the idea of logos on CDs at this event, and other
forms of advertising, too.

Also, I were planning on bringing liveCDs with Lucid installed on it, not
blank CDs.  I know that doesn't make a difference, and so I am happy to drop
this topic.

See you there, if not sooner (going to Maker Faire?),

No, I have to work this weekend.  :-/I have a big brief due.

Christian,
I'm volunteering my time to promote free software, not a business who 
bought blank CDs and pizza in exchange for their logo being placed on CD 
sleeves. Luckily, I don't think we have any *need* to accept donations 
which would require us to become providers of advertising space in 
exchange for them, so I don't see why we should.

I hope this doesn't discourage your friend from attending!

See you there, if not sooner (going to Maker Faire?),
