I'm having problems trying to upgrade. When I launch Update Manager, I get a message that there's an upgrade to 8.04. So I click on the Upgrade button.
The Distribution Upgrade dialog box launches and starts.
I get past "Preparing to upgrade" and the second section "Setting new software channels starts."
The dialog freezes with a message at the bottom that reads "Checking package manager."
All the time.
The progress bar is almost complete.
I just can't seem to get past this point.
Is there a way to do this manually or should I opt to download the CD. Also, if I download the CD, will it upgrade the existing system? I have already downloaded the CD but there doesn't seem to be an upgrade option.
Thanks!
