| prabhu | how to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 | 07:02 |
| prabhu | how to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 | 07:03 |
| sagaci | prabhu: add natty to your /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:05 |
| sagaci | then sudo apt-get update | 07:05 |
| sagaci | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 07:05 |
| sagaci | i'd recommend you reinstall though | 07:05 |
| prabhu | hmmm but i downloaded that alpha version and i made it | 07:05 |
| prabhu | in my pen drive | 07:05 |
| sagaci | what do you mean you made it | 07:06 |
| prabhu | hmmm made up a bootable one using start up disk creator | 07:06 |
| sagaci | yeah ok, so have you tried booting off it and installing it | 07:07 |
| prabhu | yeah but i dont want my data's in my 10.10 to be lost | 07:07 |
| prabhu | can i upgrade from 10.10 without any loss of data? | 07:08 |
| sagaci | prabhu: how much data are we talking | 07:19 |
| prabhu | hmmm just a little bit arnd 20 gb | 07:20 |
| sagaci | do you really want to upgradd | 07:21 |
| prabhu | yeah | 07:21 |
| prabhu | i have the iso image of natty | 07:21 |
| sagaci | like, seriously. It's bad enough going from a stable to a stable let alone to a dev release | 07:21 |
| prabhu | and i am in 10.10 now | 07:21 |
| prabhu | just i wanna give a try | 07:22 |
| sagaci | it's not worth hosing your system | 07:23 |
| sagaci | try it in a vm | 07:23 |
| prabhu | hmmm | 07:23 |
| prabhu | so just for a learning process ,pls tell me how to upgrade if i have an ubuntu<version>.iso image | 07:24 |
| sagaci | prabhu: ah, you need to alternate iso img | 07:24 |
| prabhu | sorry i cant understand? | 07:25 |
| sagaci | you need to download an alternatve image http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/11.04/alpha-1/ | 07:27 |
| sagaci | alternate* | 07:28 |
| prabhu | i did it | 07:28 |
| blahdeblah | sagaci: Don't spread FUD. Ubuntu is designed to be upgradable, and most upgrades from stable to stable work fine for most people. | 07:36 |
| blahdeblah | My laptop was originally installed on hardy and has been upgraded for every release since. I also migrated from a Dell Latitude D830 to a Lenovo ThinkPad X200s without reinstalling. | 07:37 |
| nisshh | blahdeblah, sometime soon, before the next meeting, i need to talk to you about the website too | 08:54 |
| sagaci | blahdeblah: do you really feel complacent with helping someone to an unstable and unsupported version of ubuntu when there's data to be accounted for and the process itself is not so straightforward | 09:00 |
| sagaci | the only FUD i'm spreading is the kind of FUD that will occur when the upgrade goes wrong and/or data is lost | 09:01 |
