well, I ended up giving up and upgrading my N800 from a borrowed windows laptop. Worked fine, but YUCK.

Upgrading Ubuntu from Dapper to Feisty is possible using apt-get and/or Update Manager. Basically, you have to upgrade your whole system first to Edgy and then to Feisty. For more information, check Ubuntu help pages: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/In...FromOldVersion

Of course a clean install from CD could be the easiest and fastest way... Don't blame me if anything goes wrong. And if everything is currently working, you should also consider if there's any need for upgrading. After all, Dapper (6.06 LTS) will be officially supported until 2009.
