Hello there, list!
The temptation grew too big, and as I recently
re-installed Dapper on my laptop, I partitioned the thing
so that I won't lose data if another reinstall is needed.
Thus I wanted to upgrade to Edgy.
Great, googling reveales me:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
...which urges to try:
gksu "update-manager -c -d"
...which does nothing. I understood -d switch is supposed
to tell u-m to use beta releases as well. U-m always tells
me my system is up-to-date, but:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ lsb_release --all
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
Release: 6.06
Codename: dapper
...should indicate it's not. I thought I didn't need to
fiddle with sources.list anymore? Do I?
Yes, I could try, but I want to hear the current
understanding first. And yes, I could try with aptitude
(which is what I use mainly), but having read mdz's
instructions of using it already from Breezy to Dapper, I
wanted to try it now.
Also, if I shouldn't upgrade to Edgy _right now_, is
accepted as well. :) Is it _too_ broken now? I don't mind
occasional breakage, mind you... :)
