You can update now if you change the entries on your
etc/apt/sources.list from 'warty' to 'hoary'. Then run sudo apt-get
update, upgrade dist-upgrade. This will install about 500meg of new
data, and you will, maybe, have a working Hoary beta system.
Be warned. Hoary does not work on my Dell Dimension 2400 with the E172FP
monitor, the x server xorg does not configure as it should and I had not
GUI, and was unable to fix it with xorgconfig etc.
