Can I update from ubuntu 21.10 to 22.04 (when 22.04 will be released)?

ag flag

I want to install ubuntu on my pc and I want to have the new 22.04 version.

Will I be able to upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04 after the release? (Or should I install 22.04 beta now?)

Keep in mind that adopting Ubuntu 22.04 early may lead to an unstable system. For this reason, it’s recommended to test out the new operating system on a virtual machine or test machine, until the official release date.

Why do you want to early upgrade to 22.04? It is not at all stable, this is not recommended at all.

Yes, there is an upgrade path to 22.04 from 21.10. It should prompt you to upgrade when it is available.

Yes... You can... Always upgrade to it when it is released you can run `sudo do-release-upgrade`

Sometimes it is better to wait a bit so they can fix any bugs on a new upgrade, instead of upgrading as soon it comes out.

It is too early, but if you like adventures - use `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` .

Yes you Can!

There are two ways, GUI and CLI.

Open a Terminal and type:

sudo do-release-upgrade -d -f DistUpgradeViewGtk3

Update Ubuntu GUI

Or you can do it from terminal. I prefer CLI so Open a Terminal and type:

sudo do-release-upgrade -d

Read all prompt before typing y, but you good to go.

Thanks for using Ubuntu :)

Since the question is about how to upgrade when 22.04 is released and WWE have now reached that point, could I ask why you have shown the -d flag? I thought that meant upgrade to development version.

@nickform Apparently `-d` bypasses the staged rollout: "The reason that you need to pass the -d flag is because Ubuntu prefers to prompt users to upgrade some time after the release" https://askubuntu.com/questions/1403527/how-to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-21-10-to-ubuntu-22-04#comment2437643_1403685

Currently `apt dist-upgrade && apt autoremove` is also needed to fix some `python 3.9` libraries that were held back in `21.10`

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
