ok so a friend of mine has ubuntu 9.10 installed on his pc, but he wants to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04. he doesn't have an internet connection, so he can't upgrade via the internet. i went to ubuntu.com to help him find a solution but it said to download the alternate installation iso and burn it to a disc. where do i download this? the page didn't provide any links and i googled it and i got nothin'. can anyone tell me where to download the ubuntu 10.04 alternate installation ISO?

I have one... If you don't come right let me know, I will stuck it on my ftp for you...

That said, there are (well, on monday at least) 420mb of updates to the distro, so he will need to get to a internet connection at some point... But the alternate upgrade cd does save that initial 700odd mb of download...
