Hi,
I have a debmirror for feisty, gutsy and hardy (on a server called ubuntuupdate).
I have a number of users on feisty and I want to upgrade them to hardy. What is the best way to do the upgrade?

(apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't see any upgrade - do I just have to change feisty to hardy in the sources.list??)

My sources.list is....

# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to
# newer versions of the distribution.

deb http://ubuntuupdate/feisty feisty main restricted
deb-src http://ubuntuupdate/feisty feisty main restricted

## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
deb http://ubuntuupdate/feisty feisty-updates main restricted
deb-src http://ubuntuupdate/feisty feisty-updates main restricted
