| Has anyone here upgraded from ubuntu 6.06 LAMP to 8.04??
if so did you have any issues, like data lose or database loss? did webmin, phpmyadmin and/or wordpress have any issues with it?

$b = 'STFU';

| I've done multiple ubuntu upgrades on my servers using the command line utility do-release-upgrade
I've never run into any problems with php mysql phpmyadmin or any of the other software I run. It is always good practise to backup your mysql databases first just in case but I've not needed them yet. |

| Actually, one of my servers did hit a snag and the upgrade died half way. In that case all that was required to fix it was a apt-get dist-upgrade
The only other thing I would recommend would be to make sure that you are fully up to date with a dist-upgrade before you do the release upgrade. |

| If you have had problems with the iptables getting lost before then this time do a
iptables-save > /root/iptables.bak
before you upgrade. That way if something does go wrong all it takes to fix it is
iptables-restore < /root/iptables.bak
That will restore all your rules and also all of your counters. |
