Sorry, I've just re-read your original email. It seems you were using
update-manager.
Open up your source.list
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and comment out (by putting a hash before it) this line:
deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)]/
jaunty main restricted
That line would then turn into this:
#deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)]/
jaunty main restricted
Save the file, and close down gedit. Then run the following command,
which will get a list of the new packages from the internet:
sudo aptitude update
Once done, run the following command which will (hopefully) update your
system to Jaunty:
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
If you get any errors, please copy them into pastebin (http://pastebin.com).
