Currently using 11.10 on a new dell vostro 2420 laptop and wanted to upgrade to 12.04.01lte.

Using the update manager and clicking the upgrade option first came up with a 'failure to authenticate' message and after a restart of the computer I click the upgrade and it will download 2 files then the popup closes and no further prompts/screens come up.

Is there some issue with my laptop that will prevent an upgrade? Or should I just wait and try the upgrade again another day?
