did this not work? https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial- upgrading-ubuntu-desktop#0 well you still have to do 16.04 first but it should work much the same way.On Fri, Sep 14, 2018 at 10:15 AM Matthew Gibson <guanjun.de.geliqian@gmail.com> wrote: Mark,I also dislike nuke and paving my system everytime ubuntu notches up a version number. That said 14 is reaching end of support if it hasnt already. You will soon find no more security updates is a bad thing. You've got time, go through and migrate things to your /home and then once you have that done, you can proceed as Todd has suggested.------------------------------On Fri, Sep 14, 2018, 9:37 AM Mark Phillips <mark@phillipsmarketing.biz> wrote:Todd,Thanks for the information about the InstallFest. I forgot to mention that the system is set up with 2 mirrored 1 TB SSDs.I am not excited about a clean install because I will then have to install and configure all my applications again, and I know not all the important stuff is in /home.Perhaps I should just be content with 14.04.Mark------------------------------On Thu, Sep 13, 2018 at 7:00 PM, Todd Cole <toddc@azloco.com> wrote:Hi MarkYes we will be meeting Sat at UAT 10-4PMupgrade can be done but I suspect most will recommend clean install 18.04 we normally back up /home which contains all files and data docs ect. then install clean. Why? Linux changes too fast 14.04 to 16.04 failed 50%due to massive changes that were unable to be accounted for. 16.04 to 18.04 works 90% backing up home and clean install 100% plus we can test it before hand with live media. we will every thing to test upgrade or clean installso either way we should be able to get you current.

I spent a couple of hours on the phone with the System 76 support techs, and we could not get the updater to run. I am hoping there will be someone there who can help me! Or, is this a too advanced topic for the InstallFest?Thanks!Mark---------------------
