Greetings !
I started with a Windows 7 machine and wanted to have Ubuntu as well.
I used the "Install Side by Side" option to install 9.10. So I had a dual boot system (ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7) with Grub Loader.
After this point, I got a "black screen" when I boot into ubuntu, because of the display driver incompatibility, specific to my laptop (lenovo g550).
I did not bother to fix the issue, because I had to get going. I used Wubi to install 9.04 inside windows, which worked well.
Now I want to upgrade my ubuntu to 10.04. I want to do a fresh install of 10.04 over the 9.10 (which is not working).
How can I do this ? I want to do this without losing anything on any of the partitions (windows 7 or Ubuntu 9.04) except the one on which the 9.10 is installed.
Thanks for any help.
