Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
downloaded 8.04-server-i386 cd image, mount it on a 7.10 server and run sudo
/cdrom/cdromupgrade.
It seems that the upgrade does not support ubuntu-server?
--- This is the message given by cdromupgrade:
A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the
'update-manager' package and include the files in
/var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.
