Updating to Badger

[Boyd Tong]

I am trying to update my Dell Dimension L700cx from Ubuntu 5.10 to
6.06using a CD created with the download. I have my boot sequence
floppy,CD,
HDD.  With CD in drive the system still boots through to the current
version.  One web site suggestion is to copy sbm.bin to a floppy and use
that the start the upgrade process. I formatted two floppys, one with Fat
and one with ext2. Using the file browser to find the file, I then opened
the archive dropdown and chose Save As. The error mesage is "given UDI in
not a mountable volumn". I then used a terminal to "mount /media/floppy".
The second attempt to Save As resulted in the error mesage "Archive type not
supported".
I would appreciate help on what to try next.  Boyd
