# Upgrading Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
I recently discovered that my Linode box was running a fairly old version of
|
|
Ubuntu. Because it is a remote box that I SSH into, there is no graphical
|
|
user interface. Upgrading to a newer release can be accomplished with the
|
|
following command line utility:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ do-release-upgrade
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It includes a series of prompts regarding choices about the upgrade and a
|
|
lot of waiting.
|
|
|
|
Adding the `-d` flag will upgrade to the latest development release.
