Seems like you need to download a "different" CD if you need to upgrade.
Default CD is LiveCD from which you can do 'clean install'
But all CDs are listed on ubuntu site, and it says which to download for
upgrade.
Please check Ubuntu forums. There is a lot of discussion going on regarding
upgrade capabilities in Dapper 6.06
