Hello, I'm quite inexperienced with Linux so please bear with me.

I've been using Joli OS 1.2 for a while now. I initially liked the idea behind it but when I realised the launcher was just a browser and that I was opening a browser in order to open another browser, I removed a lot of the Jolicloud elements and installed GNOME.

Seeing as Joli OS is based on Ubuntu, I was wondering if it would be possible to upgrade Joli OS to Ubuntu 11.04 instead of having to uninstall this and then install the updated version?

I really suggest you to install Ubuntu from scratch, I think what you want to do could end up in a mess, even the upgrade process from an older Ubuntu to a newer one does not always work perfectly and Joli OS is not Ubuntu.

Yeah, that's probably a better idea.

I'll install from scratch. Thanks for your help.
