Hi, I'm thinking to upgrade a physical server with a virtual (kvm) one
from jaunty to karmic.

Which is best way to do that?

First upgrade pysical or virtual machine?

There is a place where similar procedure is documented?

Many thanks in advance.

do-release-upgrade will do

but Karmic qemu does not have support for kqemu
in case you don't have a vmx or svm CPU your guests will be slooooooow

I just did that using `do-release-upgrade`, even over an ssh
connection. It nicely informs you that it will open another ssh
connection on a different port (but you don't have to do anything),
and you can just say OK and continue the process. Everything worked
very smoothly. All in all it was a very painless experience.

Many thanks, so is there no difference doing upgrade first in physical
or virtual machine?

Yes there is. I haven't upgraded virtual machines yet.
