If you need to ask, I very strongly recommend you don't attempt it.
While we are planning on Dapper being a much more tame release than
Breezy, you need to understand that there still might be all sorts of
breakage in the archive that can quite possibly render your system unusable.

If you're doing this on a spare machine that you can afford to reinstall
as necessary, running:

 sed -i s/breezy/dapper/ /etc/apt/sources.list
 apt-get update
 apt-get dist-upgrade

as root will do what you want.
