Hy!

I am not sure, wether this is a stupid question, or not.

If I do a fresh install now from a 8.10beta CD, what do I need to do in order to get a stable version on my machine, once ibex gets released? Will a simple "apt-get (dist-)upgrade" do, or is it going to be more complicated?"

cheers
Mathias

as i understand it if you keep you system up to date it should be ther same as the stable release on launch day.

If you're going to install 8.10, you can save yourself some major updating from Beta by installing the daily build ISO, from here (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/)

Just for completeness: Installing the beta and upgrading worked like charm.
Thank you everyone.
