upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy

[Dennis d'Entremont]

Thanks for the info. I am still not sure what I am going to do but I
am leaning towards attempting an upgrade to Gutsy via the upgrade
method then if that doesn't work like I want it to I still have the
option of wiping the drive and starting a new. I have all my data on
separate partitions so I'm not worried about losing anything.
