Upgrading Ubuntu 9.04 Using the Alternate CD/DVD

Use this method if the system being upgraded is not connected to the Internet.

1.Download the alternate installation CD
2.Burn the ISO to a CD and insert it into the CD-ROM drive of the computer to be upgraded.
* If the ISO file is on the computer to be upgraded, you could avoid wasting a CD by mounting the ISO as a drive
with a command like:
sudo mount -o loop ~/Desktop/ubuntu-9.04-alternate-i386.iso /media/cdrom0
3. A dialog will be displayed offering you the opportunity to upgrade using that CD.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.

If the upgrade dialog is not displayed for any reason, you may also run the following command using Alt+F2:

gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade"
