I think what they are trying to do is to get you to fully update dapper before you move on to hardy. After that is done, you can then update your /etc/apt/sources.list to <a href="http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" target="_blank">http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/</a>. You really should test on a test server first.
