How To Install Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS & Upgrade from 12.04

Ubuntu 14 04 01 upgrade

Hello everyone, how are all of you doing tonight? As for me, I am doing just fine mainly because I managed to fix my old HP laptop and it feels good to be back on this machine believe me!

I am in the process of downloading the latest Ubuntu but as of right now I am getting my Windows 7 updates installed before I make my switch back to my favorite OS, Ubuntu 14.04, anyway read on…

Upgrade Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04.1

Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS rolls the majority of bug fixes, packages, and security updates that have been issued to the OS since its release back in April into one new, easily downloadable image.

This means that those installing from the image do not have to download and install hundreds of additional updates straight after installation. Point releases also feature new and improved support for selected hardware. This helps to ensure that the OS remains as robust and compatible throughout its life cycle as possible.

The Point of Point Releases In Three Bullet Points

  1. Improve support for selected (and newer) hardware
  2. Roll in stable updates to reduce download requirements on fresh install
  3. Maintain stability

To see an exhaustive list of the changes, fixes and improvements rolled in, check out the release notes on the Ubuntu wiki.”
