Canonical begins pushing Resolute Raccoon

Canonical has officially announced the upcoming release of Ubuntu 26.04.1, also known as "Resolute Raccoon." Users on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS will now be offered an automatic upgrade to this new Long-Term Support (LTS) version. Although the official announcement came after Ubuntu 26.04.1 had been available for over a month, users can still upgrade their systems with ease.

There are two methods to upgrade: a command-line-based approach or a graphical user interface (GUI) option. Before beginning the upgrade, it is recommended to install any pending updates using the command `sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y` and then refresh Snap packages with `sudo snap refresh`. Additionally, clearing the APT package manager's cache may free up space before starting the upgrade process.
