Hello Everybody,
Now usually I blow out my machine and perform a fresh install, but this time I thought that I would do an in-place upgrade.
The gist of it is:
1) Update all your package
2) Tell the update-manager that you would like to upgrade away from an LTS
3) Upgrade
I prefer to do things via command line so:
1) sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
2) sudoedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
- Change from "Prompt=lts" to "Prompt=normal"
3) sudo do-release-upgrade
Full instructions for both graphical and command-line based methods can be conveniently found on Ubuntu's website:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/QuantalUpgrades
I hope everybody has a great time with the new release!
