Upgrade Ubuntu 8.10 to Ubuntu 9.04

I know that Ubuntu 9.04 final has released, how ever i want to upgrade my Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04. I know i can directly do a separate or clean install, but will like to know more ways because, i haven't did a upgrade install of any of the Linux OS before. Any suggestion are most welcome on this topic. Thanks

Here is the help guide : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades

  • You can only directly upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 from Ubuntu 8.10 .
  • Be sure that you have all updates applied to Ubuntu 8.10 before you upgrade.
  • Before upgrading it is recommended that you read the release notes for Ubuntu 9.04, which document caveats and workarounds for known issues in this version.
