-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Ubuntu Update

Hi Jo,
the downloads are an ISO and need to be burnt to a CD
then boot up the computer from the CD.

SEE: 
BurningIsoHowto
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
Ubuntu is distributed over the Internet as CD image files, 
called ISOs. To install Ubuntu, you first need to burn its 
ISO file onto a CD. You need a working CD/DVD burner 
and an 80 minute (700 Mb) CD for this. 
This page explains how you can do it using Windows, 
Mac OS X, Ubuntu and Kubuntu. If the CD writing fails, 
try writing at a slower burn speed. The CDIntegrityCheck 
page describes how to verify the integrity of the finished 
disk. If your finished disk fails to boot when you restart 
your computer, please refer to the BootFromCD page.
