Hello, I've spent the weekend trying to find a way to upgrade 7.10 to 8.04 with no luck.
When I run it from Update manager, the process starts and I get a box "Distribution Upgrade" the little status bar gets all the way with Preparing to Upgrade and stops, and that's it, nothing. I've left it running for hours, but nothing happens, I have to restart the system to get rid of the upgrade box. (I can't see which system process it is to stop it) I've downloaded the alternate CD to give that a go, but same result. I've tried to run in from the terminal using apt-get dist-upgrade, but no luck there either. So, I'm ready to just start all over again - but before I do, does anyone have any ideas? Thanks heaps. g.
