upgrade-manager should still work for you to upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04,
then 10.04, then 12.04.

Title:
  downloaded disk will not auto-run on startup.

Status in “installation-guide” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have Ubuntu 6.6 on an old hp machine, formerly a win2000 machine.
    No matter the boot sequence settings for start-up, only 6.6 runs.  The Downloaded install disk will not initiate installation.

  Apparently 6.6 is too old to update, or allow the new version to take
  over.

  What do I do ?  I am not proficient enough to manually install via the
  boot sector.  I cannot even find gparted.
