you can use the terminal:

sudo do-release-upgrade -d
or use the update manager gui program,
System>Administration>Update Manager

That command it to upgrade to development releases mate.



# GUI (you might want to use gksude, or whatever the thing is to run gui apps with sudo
sudo update-manager

# cli
sudo aptitude install update-manager-core
sudo do-release-upgrade

Or download the alternate install cd. Make sure you have all 9.04 updates, then run the upgrade script on the alt cd.
