Well, I'm glad to see at least someone out there is updating to me!!! I
think it is a very worth while update. I have much better features than
the previous version.



All kidding aside, it looks like you didn't burn a bootable ISO image
and that is why the computer skips over it during the boot.

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
