Agreed!
Lots of good info to be found via google, forums & discussion groups
specific to this OS.
Good if we can keep freelist as CBM related.

I hate to discourage conversation, but honestly, this is way off topic for this list and frankly much too complex a topic to attempt through email alone.
Thanks folks,

Hi Brian,
What I really wanted to do was upgrade my Linux Ubuntu 9.10 to
Ubuntu 16.04.2. I have already downloaded the ISO file into my
Downloads directory. What should I do next?
Cheers,
Marlon S.

An ISO image can be written to USB flash to boot, rather than
writing out to CD/DVD media

Getting an ISO file onto a USB drive isn't as easy as copying the
file. Here's a complete tutorial on how to burn an ISO to USB
(like a flash drive).
(have done this myself many times)

Hi Marlon -
I see you have given up installing this but the .iso in the file
name would indicate that this is a CD image and needs to be
burned to a CD.
Does your computer have the ability to boot from a CD to install
the CD data onto the hard drive?

I recently downloaded Ubuntu-16.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso into my
Downloads dir, but I'm not sure how to install it into my HP
desktop system. I just got a 64 GB HP flash drive, so maybe that
will help. Please advise me on this. Thank you.
