How to Upgrade your full distribution of Ubuntu to the latest version

For your server that doesn't have a gui
sudo -i
enter your root password
apt-get install update-manager-core
do-release-upgrade
this will do a complete update to the latest version of Ubuntu, including updating of your sources list

on a desktop installation were you have Gnome or KDE installed press ALT -F2 then type
update-manager --devel-release and then click on run
this will also do a complete upgrade.
