<p dir="ltr">If you create a clone of just your drive, don't do what I did once and end up with two drives with the same UUID and wonder where your recent recording have gone after an unexpected reboot.</p>
<p dir="ltr">> there's absolutely no reason to do an incremental upgrade</p>
<p dir="ltr">Maybe not for Myth, which has always been well behaved for me during upgrades, but Ubuntu has frequently wasted my time especially on a front end.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Another alternative according to <a href="http://www.mythbuntu.org/repos">http://www.mythbuntu.org/repos</a> would be to go to 10.04, then to 0.25, then to 12.04 and finally to 0.26.</p>
<p dir="ltr">But as Mike says, you should probably just go for it and just have the potential pain of fixing stuff once. Especially if you are working on a clone and can roll back if you run out of time.</p>
