I made this document after i did some Edubuntu upgrades from Feisty(7.04) to Gutsy(7.10)
In doing the system upgrade, there are 3 ways;
- Online upgrade from the Internet
- Offline upgrade from the latest version of Edubuntu CD(s)
- Re-install your Edubuntu.
1. Online Upgrade :
This method is not really a recommended one ( if you have problem with the bandwidth of your internet connection), because it will download a huge capacity of files from the internet, but if you have a good internet connection, maybe you can try this out.
Just go to Applications – Add/Remove and click on upgrade button and after that wait until all the processes finished
2. Offline Upgrade :
- Insert the latest Edubuntu bin-1 CD
- Autorun dialog box will appear and choose start package manager
- Click on Mark all upgrades
- Click Apply button
- When you asked about including online installation, choose NO for now, you can do this later
- Read the notification boxes, click next buttons to proceed
- Restart the computer
- Do edubuntu (offline) installation ( from main packages installation step).
3. Re-install your Edubuntu :
- Make sure that you do not have any document in your Linux partition.
- If you have, move all your Linux data to windows partition
- Do How to install Edubuntu ( can be combined with edubuntu (offline) installation.
- Finished ( you may restart the computer )
Happy Upgrade !!
