Posted by rSean in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) is out and I’m in the process of upgrading my home server. Thanks to the update manager, this process is a snap.
First, let’s ensure the update manager is current
$ sudo install update-manager-core
Next, we’ll set our prompts to normal. In the case that you’re currently running an LTS version, you normally wouldn’t be prompted with the upgrade as this is has Long Term Support
$ sudo nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
Finally, let’s kick off the update manager!
$ sudo do-release-upgrade
Follow the prompts and you’re done!
