The alternate images have been handy to me at the Clinic. On more than
one occasion someone has wanted to upgrade from whatever Ubuntu they
currently have to the latest. We don't have a lot of bandwidth at Free
Geek, but the Alternate images allow an upgrade from CD rather than
over the net connection. Are you telling me that the Alternate images
will be no longer? if so, how can I upgrade an existing Ubuntu without
a net connection?
