We have application software that really likes Ubuntu Server 11.10. I need to upgrade several 11.04 servers to this version. Two questions:

  1. The servers that need to be upgraded do not have Internet access in our datacenter due to security reasons. I need to download the updates/upgrades to a secure system and then transfer them to the datacenter servers for installation. Is anyone aware of the steps involved?
  2. How/where do I get the 11.10 updates from? I don't see an option on the Ubuntu site for downloading specific versions of the OS and/or upgrades.

Try installing 11.10 with a disc or making a ISO image with Brasero then installing that. with that you can select what you want on the ISO.

Hope this helps, bob

You can upgrade without internet access by using the "alternate" installation CD or ISO file. Read the instructions for Ubuntu Desktop, then use this variation for Ubuntu Server:

sudo ./cdromupgrade --frontend=DistUpgradeViewText

You can download end of life releases from old-releases.ubuntu.com.
