Demand for Ubuntu CDs is very high, and we're trying to ensure that we have enough CDs for those who really need one. We've noticed that you've already received CDs of several previous Ubuntu releases. You can help us ensure the continued availability of Ubuntu CDs by

upgrading to the new release without a CD
downloading your own CD for free
becoming an Ubuntu member by contributing to Ubuntu, and thereby becoming eligible for more CDs

That's strange, I've always received my orders...

If you receive a message saying that "you've already received CDs of several previous Ubuntu releases". You can register for a new account and get a pre-order that way if you really need a CD. Else you can always download and burn it to share with your friends! :cheesygri

If you already have Ubuntu installed, it's really easy to upgrade. In fact you don't need a disc to do it...


To upgrade from Ubuntu 9.04 on a desktop system, press Alt+F2 and type in "update-manager -d" (without the quotes) into the command box. Update Manager should open up and tell you: New distribution release '9.10' is available. Click Upgrade and follow the on-screen instructions.

Can windows xp and Ubuntu co-exist? i.e can I switch between the two systems? Do I need to use a new harddrive for a clean installation?
