i have lot of work on image don't want lose deleting image , downloading updated version. can give!
the process upgrading virtual machine latest version of ubuntu same physical machine. since graphical upgrade interface not working, recommend typing command-line equivalent
do-release-upgrade
you might need sudo privileges, command be
sudo do-release-upgrade
this check available upgrades , start upgrade process. if errors occur in process, easier find , read opposed graphical interface upgrading.
i highly recommend backing personal information separate drive/usb/cloud in case goes wrong. it's in habit of upgrade or major changes operating system has personal files.
