Hi,
I want to upgrade an old machine with 350 MB RAM running Ubuntu 8.04. My first attempt was to upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Initially it seemed fine, but then it hang at the splash screen.
Then I reinstalled 8.04, and tried to upgrade using "sudo add-apt-repository" but 8.04 doesn't know that yet.
Next attempt was to boot into the LiveCD of Lubuntu 10.04 and it hangs at a message about unknown UID.
Can somebody please tell me what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks
