Ubuntu 14.04 LTS ending April 2019 then what next one needs to do and how. I would also like to know if we can directly jump to the higher release or upgrade step by step? If step by step then how to upgrade to the latest, please suggest. I would again like to opt for LTS. I am scared to do as grub should not get crashed..

Worth noting is i have dual boot with Win 7 ultimate.

Regards, SHK

I would like to go through step by step, not an issue, but only thing i am scared of is that i have dual boot system and not sure what to care while upgrade to 16.04 and to 18.04 LTS.... – SHK Jan 05 '19 at 08:42
Do you have backups of all your personal files? – karel Jan 05 '19 at 08:45
yes I am backing up of all personal files from Ubuntu before the jump. Don't want to get in a situation where my system goes down and nothing works... – SHK Jan 05 '19 at 08:47
Make sure you have a bootable USB stick or something. It is very rare that Ubuntu updates will make your system unbootable and it would always be fixable using a bootable USB stick. – Jo-Erlend Schinstad Jan 05 '19 at 09:18
USB Stick with 18.04? I have one with 14.04. Please suggest. – SHK Jan 05 '19 at 10:27
