I wish to upgrade my server to 9.10. Apparently sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is not going to work.

There seem to be rather mixed suggestions as to what will work.

What is the preferred approach?

The following instructions seem to enjoy some support but I do not understand the third step......

1. Run: apt-get install update-manager-core

2. Then: nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

2.1. Change Prompt=lts to Prompt=normal

3. Finally run: do-release-upgrade

Yep, sounds about right.

Open a terminal window and type "sudo do-release-upgrade" and follow what it says.
