Why do you want to upgrade to 10.04? It's still in development and it's not recommended to upgrade your main system to it.
If you want just to test it, either run it with the Try Ubuntu option from the cd, or install in separate partition without installing the bootloader. Then in 9.10 just run update-grub to find the new 10.04 install.
If you upgrade your main system to 10.04 even if it works at the start, it can easily break down later.
