Upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04: “No upgrades available”
I'm trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 to 18.04 LTS. How?
update-manager -d --dist-upgrade reports:
| Your system is up-to-date
|
| There are no upgrades available for your system. The upgrade will
| now be canceled.
Here's what I tried:
Follow How to install software or upgrade from an old unsupported release?
In /etc/apt/sources.list, replace all occurrences of ubuntu.media.mit.edu with old-releases.ubuntu.com.
In /var/lib/apt, mv lists lists.old; mkdir -p lists/partial
Apt update error - "An error occurred during the signature verification" (Chrome)
wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
Even though dl.google.com and canonical don't occur in /etc/apt/sources.list, they are in some hidden configuration and cause trouble. Get info on finding them from How to install software or upgrade from an old unsupported release?; uncheck those two boxes.
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
sudo update-manager -cd
sudo update-manager -d --dist-upgrade

@user68186 Although 10.04 is way too old release and it's been quite a long time since it reached its EOL, but I guess this question still doesn't fall under off-topic category. See this meta post: Errors while upgrading from a EOL release — should the question be closed?

@Quigi There is no direct way of upgrading to 18.04. You need to hop through some versions and would be full of hassles. Clean installation of 18.04 would have less hassles and will prove to be time saving.

I believe the command is
sudo do-release-upgrade
However, since the last upgradable version seems to be 14.04, you will have to use a DVD. 10.04 is not supported anymore, and therefore not upgradable. Only 14.04 on are supported; you will need a clean install

Yes,do-release-upgradeis the command. I had tried it earlier, when my sources were more messed up. By substitutingold-releases.ubuntu.comI was able to connect to repositories in most cases, but there are a few not in/etc/apt/sources.listlikearchive.ubuntu.comwhich still raise404 Not Found.
