I am preparing to test the ability to upgrade from 6.06.2 directly to
hardy, without the incremental steps between.
Dapper Install
I have no Dapper install disks handy, so I took a breezy install
disk and installed CLI-only
I edited the sources.list file to comment out the cd, enabled all
repo's, and replaced all instances of "breezy" with "dapper"
I upgraded from breezy to dapper via apt-get update and apt-get
dist-upgrade
I added xubuntu to the CLI-only with apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
Hardy Install -- phase one
Manually edit sources.list , replacing "dapper" with "hardy"
Upgrade via CLI with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Report any issues
*****should sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade be tested
as well?
Hardy Install -- phase two
Format and re-install per "Dapper Install" (see above)
Upgrade via upgrade tool (is this available to test yet?)
Report any issues
Test system:
Pentium II 350 MHz
384 MB Ram
15 GB hard drive
