[15:33] hi all ian has installed karmic as its the only cd he has there and did upgrade to lucid with update manager [15:34] how does he get it to upgrade to maverick from there via cli please [15:54] Kilos: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [15:54] ty zeref [15:54] will that not just update lucid [15:54] why not just wait till 12.04 comes out [15:55] he needs a working ubuntu to be able to run boot-repair on other crashed drives [15:55] his has uncapped at work so it isnt a prob [15:56] so he's is going to 10.04 10.10 11.04 11.10 then 12.04 :P [15:56] he also doesnt have much time to fix things that dont work so wants to have a stable os to use and will then go 11.04 and 11.10 [15:56] thats right [15:57] he doesnt have time or cash to burn cds and start installing everytime so wants to go the upgrade route online [16:04] hmmmm [16:46] bbl [16:58] Evening all.
