I am trying to update my Dell Dimension L700cx from Ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06
using 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
