I downloaded 18.04.3 from the main Ubuntu pages and the file downloaded is called 18.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso so I know I selected the right thing... but after the installed has completed I have Ubuntu17.10 installed. I noticed it doing the first apt-get update.. and found that

/etc/apt/sources.list

contained the following

#deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 17.10 _Artful Aardvark_ - Release amd64 (20180105.1)]/ artful main restricted

# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to
# newer versions of the distribution.
deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ artful main restricted

My files from the previous version have gone so I know the disk reformat completed OK.

I did a search but couldn't find anyone reporting the same ? Just mentioning it in case it's a build issue? Has anyone else seen this or have I done something daft?

run this command to sure what version are you using:

cat /etc/lsb_release

if it has ubuntu 18 so you are right.

you can type pwd and df -h to sure where are you and what is your root partition.

User error. I had the right ISO but failed when creating the USB boot media and it left an old copy of ubuntu in place. Tried again and all OK.
