Upgrade Your KDE neon install to Noble 24.04 base.

Make sure that you have your important data backed up before attempting an upgrade!

1) Update your system using Plasma Discover

While we are testing the upgrade you will need to edit the distro release meta data path here:
sudo nano /etc/update-manager/meta-release
set
URI = http://testbed.jriddell.org/meta-release-lts
URI_LTS = http://testbed.jriddell.org/meta-release-lts
run
qdbus org.kde.kded6 /org/kde/DistroReleaseNotifier org.kde.DistroReleaseNotifier.Poll

3) You will be notified of a new release

4) Enter your user password

If you have any additional repositories enabled you will get a message similar to this. Click close and you can re-enable the repositories after the upgrade if needed

7.5) Click Keep to keep the upgrade file settings.
