Hello All,
I'm sure this has been answered before but I can't find a solution.
I am attempting to upgrade my server install of ubuntu from 8.10 to 9.10. I've used in succession:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
Things seem to work as expected but when the machine is rebooted it is still on 8.10. What is the trick to force this to get to 9.10?
I'm using a very old dual processor Tyan motherboard with 2 Pentium III and 256Mg ram and 35G hard drive space. Its so old that on startup I get a warning that the CPU doesn't contain the right processes to run KVM, so I do everything by command line.
I am certainly no Linux expert or even much of a novice. I use the box for PostgreSQL and SVN.
Thanks for any insight.
Milton S.
