Is 9.10 a black eye for Ubuntu?

[wcj9996]

I have installed 9.10 on both a 32 bit laptop and an AMD 64 bit desktop 
computer.  The desktop has 2 drives, 1 ATA with Win-XP and a Serial drive with 
8.04 and now 9.10.

The only problem was that grub2 was completely confused by the two drives and so 
I removed grub2 and installed grub(1).  I added the 9.10 entry to the 8.04 
menu.lst on the boot drive and now all works as expected.

All went well on the laptop which dual boots XP & 9.10 which is a more typical 
installation.

At this point I am pleased with 9.10, however I am still using 8.04 LTS as my 
main system.

Black eye?  I don't think so.  Anyone ever try to update from Win-98 to Vista?
