the best thing for u is to download ubuntu cd 7.10 (or) ask for a free cd from shipit

   1. Download and burn the alternate installation CD.
   2. Insert it into your CD-ROM drive.
   3. A dialog will be displayed offering you the opportunity to upgrade using that CD.
   4. Follow the on-screen instructions.

If the upgrade dialog is not displayed for any reason, you may also run the following command using Alt+F2:

  gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade"

Can you help with this problem?
