can you upgrade to UE2.5 from UE2.4

Postby specialist125 » Sun Dec 06, 2009 2:13 am

Frist let me say hello to everyone since I'm new to this forum,also if I post this question in the wrong sections I apologize.

I have recently started using Ultimate Edition 2.4 I previously used sidux. I really enjoy this distro and it works well. I see that Ultimate Edition 2.5 is now availiable for download and I wasn't sure how to upgrade to the new version "apt-get update or dist-upgrade" if possible or will I have to reinstall my o/s from the live disc? One last thing will this procedure be the same when ubuntu changes to the next version.
