I hope it goes well for you. It should work for most people. You are missing the biggest reason to download the new image : You burn copies for friends to get them to try it

Thanks. Oh, I know that old problems can be dragged into an updated Ubuntu via UPGRATE, but why not take the chance?

Hehe, my friends don't want or need Ubuntu, so I don't have to burn CD's. I think that burning the CD is a waste of resources when I can update online.

I didn't use my CD much in the past, so I am just avoiding having them.

Well, I'm just about to start upgrading, thinking of doing a fresh install from CD later.. But here goes!

it's always good to have a backup cd at your disposal

Problem connecting to tracker - timeout exceeded

tracker down?

[Nunu]

I am completely anal about having original CD's for software (except windows that is open source software of a different nature )

Thats why order the CD's or DVD's online and wait for the delivery... well that and the fact the SA broadband sucks monkey balls. But i am now so eager to get the install done i am thinking of trying to download it tonight... Oh wait i can't because i have a 2GIG freaking cap!!!!!

I'm doing my 7.10 upgrade right now using the upgrade manager thingy, 969 files of 1104 downloaded and 14 minutes to go. 253kb/s.

Good luck to everyone else who's doing the same !!

Tracker Status : offline (timed out)

Seems so.

Edit: I've moved from peer/leech to seeder! Download done! YAY! Still pushing 8Mb/s up and I'll leave it open all weekend to help out.

Has any one completed an upgrade or fresh install yet.

I am so curious about the outcome i can almost $..T myself

Newbie dumb question: can you upgrade from the gutsy beta?

[Flyingjester]

yes schmeel, go to system > admin > update manager, once you download all the updates you are running the final version
