Cara ini lebih ringan dan tidak banyak membutuhkan banyak bandwidth internet.
Cara ini yang di upgrade hanya pada bagian seperlunya saja.
Cara ini hanya mengganti repository lama menjadi yang lebih baru, dalam hal ini saya mengganti repository ubuntu 9.04 menjadi repository nya ubuntu 10.04 atau lebih tinggi lagi atau terserah kita apa yang kita mau.
Caranya sbb:
Ketik di terminal
$ sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
ubah menjadi seperti dibawah ini:

Setelah kita rubah, kita save (simpan) lalu tutup editornya.
Ketik di terminal
$ sudo apt-get update (harus terhubung dengan internet) untuk prosesnya seperti dibawah ini
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get update

Selesai, sekarang kita bisa upgrade apa saja yg mau kita upgrade lewat synaptic.
Keutungan cara upgrade seperti ini sbb:
Tidak banyak mengahabiskan bandwidth internet.
Bisa upgrade firefox yang aslinya firefox 3.6 menjadi firefox 18.0.1.
Bisa instal google chrome versi 21.
Bisa upgrade codec, libc6, libatk, libasound2 dlsbnya.
Kerugianya cara upgrade seperti ini sbb:
Tidak bisa upgrade secara otomatis.
Ada pesan error tapi tidaklah mengganggu sistim ubuntu kita.
Jika sewaktu kita upgrde sesuatu dan menyebabkan sistim ubuntu kita menjadi tidak bisa dibuka lagi maka jurus yg paling ampuh adalah $ sudo apt-get install ulang.
Kapan kapan saya akan coba mengganti reponya ubuntu 9.04 menjadi reponya ubuntu 12.04 (tidak jadi saya coba karena banyak aplikasi tdk berfungsi sebagai mana mestinya).
Ubuntu versi 9.04 adalah versi ubuntu yg paling paling bersahabat dg laptop saya makanya saya jadikan eksperimen.
Jika anda ingin upgrade versi OS ubuntu saya sarankan lbh baik dgn cara fresh_instal, ketimbang melalui internet (online) maupun offline (DvD aternate iso).
Setelah berhasil upgrade OS, Jangan terlalu banyak berharap adanya perubahan yg spektakuler atau adanya fitur yg WoW..., tapi bisa jadi malah ada problem (bug) baru yg menyebalkan yg sulit atau bahkan gagal dicari solusinya.
Semoga tulisan tidak berguna.
