Contents |
Upgrading from Ubuntu 8.10 (or Super Ubuntu) or older versions of both
- You first have to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 (see: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading ), and then upgrade from Ubuntu 9.04 to Super OS (see bellow).
Note: Sometimes upgrades break your system, so a fresh install is recommended.
Upgrading from Ubuntu (+ Kubuntu + Xubuntu) 9.04 (manual way)
- Install the Super OS repository
- Check for updates (type sudo apt-get update on the terminal)
- Install the package super-os (using synaptic or the command line: sudo apt-get install super-os )
- Done!
Upgrading from Ubuntu (+ Kubuntu + Xubuntu) 9.04 (easy way)
