There are DVD's for various cpu's (i386, x86_64, PPC, etc.)
The live-cd is obviously a small footprint

a upgrade in place using the Update Manager for ubuntu 9.10?
Did it work?
On 3 of the 4 computer's I've done so far, the upgrade was flawless,
aside from the new firefox icon not automatically appearing. Of the
successful ones, 2 were AMD/nVidia-based desktops, both relatively new,
custom builds w
Ext4 is one of the best new features, now fully stable. It's worth
the clean install to get.

This depends on what you want out of the upgrade:
For most desktop use, upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 is pretty smooth and
painless, although you'll be stuck with the stupid chooser login, all
of the other GDM options are gone.

If anybody knows how to setup hardware raid with ubuntu 9.10
Intel raid is a firmware based soft raid
So it won't work as is
Linux just has no drivers
Likely never will

Software RAID is pretty effective in Linux, and you'll almost certainly be
fine with performance unless you're running an ancient single-core CPU or a
tiny little atom chip.

It's actually a good point Ryan - if they'd just backport more newer
builds of software, it would obviate the need for massive upheaval which
inevitably breaks half the things it does. The big-bang approach of
dist-upgrades between revisions just simply doesn't work as it's been
proven throughout
