Introduzione
In questa guida viene indicato come eseguire l'avanzamento dalla versione 8.04 alla versione 9.04 di Kubuntu.
Una volta effettuato l'avanzamento non sarà possibile tornare a utilizzare KDE3 poiché durante l'avanzamento anche le impostazioni delle applicazioni subiranno delle modifiche.
Avanzamento via rete
Aprire una Konsole ed eseguire il seguente comando:
wget http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/9.04-upgrade/kubuntu-8.04-to-9.04-beta-upgrade
Eseguire:
bash kubuntu-8.04-to-9.04-beta-upgrade
È possibile leggere lo script aprendolo con un editor di testo per controllarne le operazioni. Se non si è sicuri delle operazioni che eseguirà, utilizzare un altro metodo di avanzamento.
Avanzamento usando il CD/DVD alternate
1) Insert the alternate CD, open it in a new window, open the Run Command dialog by pressing Alt+F2. Type kdesudo "/media/cdrom/cdromupgrade" in the command box and press the OK button.
2) Review the upgrade notes and click Upgrade
3) You will be asked for your password
4) The upgrade tool will start
5) When presented with the Package Changes dialog, review the changes to be made and then press the Start Upgrade button.
6) Go and have a coffee while 9.04 is downloaded and installed.
Note: If the connection to the Net is lost during this stage, The install tool will abort. But if you reconnect and restart the process, then once the channels are set, the file count should resume where it left off.
7) If you are presented with the Configuration File Change dialog, press the Show Difference button to see what the system would change, and press the Keep button to retain YOUR settings, or press the Replace button to go ahead and overwrite your settings with the new package settings. If in doubt press Replace.
8) The final step of the upgrade provides you the ability to keep obsolete packages by pressing the Keep button, or go ahead and remove the packages by pressing the Remove button. If in doubt press Remove.
9) The last step of the entire process is to go ahead and reboot your machine.
Risoluzione problemi
If you get an error stating one of these possibilities:
Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
try executing the following:
'sudo dpkg --configure -a' in a terminal.
Afterwards, reboot, and try the upgrade again. This should help to fix any broken packages that are missing due to upgrade problems.
