I am sorry but I have to correct you. This information is *WRONG*.

The right way to upgrade, if you can't make it work with the graphical 
user interface for whatever reason, is to use the server way, as 
described on

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OneiricUpgrades#Network_Upgrade_for_Ubuntu_Servers_.28Recommended.29



The upgrade method for desktops and servers is *EXACTLY* the same, the 
only difference for desktops is that you get a fancy graphical shell 
that hides any typing in a terminal window. It is not forbidden to use 
the server method also for desktops, quite the contrary.
