How to Upgrade Versions of Edubuntu

An Edubuntu installation DVD (version 10.10) should be located in the the same location as the LTSP server. Distrubutions (versions) of Ubuntu including Edubuntu are released twice a year in April and October. The release uses the last two digits of the year followed by a period, then followed by the month number.

For example:

Ubuntu 10.10 (Released in the year 2010, in October - 10th month) Ubuntu 11.04 (Released in the year 2011, in April - 4th month)

Note: When a new release of Ubuntu / Edubuntu becomes available, a section in the Update Manager program will indicate a newer version and allow the administrator to perform an online upgrade to new version. This procedure can take a few hours. The administrator should advise and request permission to perform an online update, since these downloads may affect the normal download usage of the current ISP usage agreement.
