Hello
I installed ubuntu 8.04 via WUBI on my netbook.
I want to upgrade my system to 9.10 but I can't.

on my "update manager" it's wrote "your system is up to date" and I dont see any upgrage note.

I should see note like this (in the picthure) But I dont.

thanks

you need to upgrade to 8.10 and then 9.04 before you can upgrade to 9.10.

If you search there are instructions on how to do this, I think you need to change the repositories to do it.

I don't think it is possible to upgrade from 8.04 straight to 9.10, because 8.04 is a LTS (Long Term Support) version and 9.10 isn't.

You could either wait until 10.04 is out, or you would have to upgrade to 8.10, then 9.04 and finally 9.10
