Ubuntu Live CD Will Let You Upgrade To Newer Ubuntu Versions [Ubuntu
11.04 Development]

An update to the Ubuntu 11.04 installer (Ubiquity) finally brings
upgrade support to the Ubuntu Live CD. That means that for instance if

have an option to upgrade (without losing your documents and installed
applications). Besides this change, there's also a redesigned
partitioner:

Because this has just landed in Ubuntu 11.04 (and because Ubuntu 11.04
is still in alpha!), it's best not to try this feature yet as it may
break stuff (I didn't tested it).
