Title:
  Please check for a supported kernel before upgrade

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  I ran into an issue with update-manager as the hosting company was
  using an unsupported kernel.

  I was trying to get from 8.04 to 8.10 to 9.04 to 9.10, but I had to
  stop at 8.10 as the kernel 2.6.9 was not upgradeable and that resulted
  in the upgrade to 9.04 to fail.

  A poster recommended to report this feature suggestion here.

  Here is the full story including the logs, kernel version, etc.:
