I know this question is subjective, but I'll ask:
I've read about various fails during upgrading to the newest version of Ubuntu. (i.e. from Raring to Saucy) That's why I want to know: What is the safest way to upgrade? I've found the following methods:
sudo do-release-upgrade
- Using the provided GUI upgrader (which I guess uses
do-release-upgrade
) - Burn a DVD/Make a bootstick with the new version and upgrade via installer.
Please add other methods, if there are any. I'd like to have explained answers, and not "Way X is the best!". Again: I know it's subjective, but I think there are many people with the same question so I think is worth an answer.
PS: I don't want to do a reinstallation.
