Upgrade from local mirror

[ahaider7]

Hello guys,

I want to upgrade my ubuntu 9.10 installtion to 10.04. However, the upgrade requires 668 MB of data to be downloaded. Unfortunately, I have download volume restrictions on my internet plan. So, I can't afford to doownload this huge amount of data.

However, my University is maintaining a local mirror of ubuntu, which is not listed in official mirrors. It is located at:


http://ringtail.its.monash.edu.au/pub/linux/ubuntu/

and


http://ringtail.its.monash.edu.au/pub/linux/ubuntu-releases/

Now, I need a way to upgrade my release using these local mirrors. Any ideas how to do it ?

Found one possible solution.

Download the 'alternate install cd' image from local mirror. Mount the image and upgrade according to instructions at: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading.
