Smooth upgrades: the ultimate collection of upgrade guides

Want the cleanest way to move from Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or 25.10 to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS? This refreshed guide keeps the original command-line walkthrough, but updates it for the Ubuntu 26.04 cycle and separates the safe, supported LTS path from the lab-only development-release path. You will see when to wait for the standard release prompt, when to use do-release-upgrade -d for testing, how to switch between LTS and interim release prompts, and how to verify the upgrade afterwards. If you also want a newer kernel than the distro default, the guide includes current mainline download commands for the latest stable 6.19.14 build and the 7.0.1 mainline build.

In this article, I will show you how to upgrade Windows 10 to Wiindows 11 or perform a clean install.
