12.04 to 12.10 upgrade from the command line?

[fugazi32]

Hi there,

Is there a way I can upgrade Lubuntu 12.04 to 12.10 from the command line? I can't see the option to upgrade yet in the Update Manager.

Thanks,
Nate

sudo do-release-upgrade

should do it

First make sure it is fully updated. Then you can try opening the update manager with the -d option, like:
gksu update-manager -d

If that also doesn't offer 12.10, I think in terminal it should be:
sudo do-release-upgrade

Make sure you have a full backup of your data before you start. Upgrades can sometimes go wrong making the system unbootable.

In Terminal type: update-manager -d

Then follow prompts to update from 12.04 to 12.10...

I get:


Checking for a new Ubuntu release
No new release found


:confused:

Check

/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

Prompt should equal normal.

Prompt=normal

and not

Prompt=lts

Prompt=lts

Cheers, nice one! ;)
