“Important Notes Before Upgrade: Take a complete Back up all
your data. There is no guarantee that all will go well. Before
upgrading it is recommended that you read the release notes for
Ubuntu 10.04, which document caveats and workarounds for known
issues in this version. Be sure that you have all updates applied
to Ubuntu 9.10 before you upgrade.”
