How can I upgrade to 9.04 by using CD / DVD instead of from internet repositories?
make sure that u have the alternate cd or dvd[the first disc]
insert your cd/dvd on the rom
$ sudo apt-cdrom add
$ sudo apt-get update
[check the configuration make sure it hit the repos]
open the synaptic-package-manager then follow the command above
Visit System > Administration > Update Manager
