oh damn, 9.04 that's been dead a long time, and you can't upgrade via apt very easily, so you have two options, wait for an official image (probably be a few days) or install 10.04 and upgrade to 12.04 via apt.


9.04 -> 12.04 would be done by:
9.04 -> 9.10 -> 10.04 -> 12.04

I'm not sure why you say you can't do it very easily... It's pretty easy.

Because 9.04 and 9.10 aren't in the repos anymore http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ and upgrading 4 times is bound to have some configuration file conflicts
