Another thing to consider I thought to upgrade from Feisty to Hardy you'd have to upgrade to Gusty as an intermediate. That could be a lot of downloading. I'd make copies of home and etc and anything you else you've customised and do a fresh install. 2008/5/7 Roger Searle <roger(a)stepahead.org.nz>:

I'm thinking of upgrading the Kubuntu on my PC from Feisty Fawn to Hardy Heron, is there anything special I have to consider?
The upgrade process took a loooong time here. I'd consider backing up your home directory and doing a fresh install instead.
A version upgrade I did from Gutsy downloaded 800MB - whether that is less than you getting the 700MB iso and what ever other updates on top of that I'm not sure.
Regardless of what method you choose, back up /home (including hidden files/folder) and any data you have other places to another machine or disk first, because you never know when something might go wrong. Except that it is more likely when you have no backup . . .
Cheers, Roger
