I wanted to keep my existing configuration and programs on my Cubieboard2 with Linaro Lubuntu, but at the same I wanted to upgrade the packages since the Lubuntu 12.10 is quite outdated. This post describes my steps to upgrade my Cubieboard2 to the newer version, which can be done in 3 steps:

  1. Update repository list to old-releases derivatives
  2. Upgrade Ubuntu 12.10 (Linaro 13.04) to Ubuntu 13.10 (Linaro 14.01)
  3. Ubuntu 13.10 (Linaro 14.01) to Ubuntu 14.04  LTS version (long time support)
