Hello.

I think you got to make a fresh install. Moving LTSP directory, won't 
move /home and that directory is Build for your Ubuntu 8.** system.

In my case i got a disk with /home, so when i need to upgrade, i just 
umount /home, save /etc/passwd /etc/gshadow, /etc/gshadow and /etc/group.

Then, fresh install, copy all 4 files to new installation, mount /home 
and it's rolling.

You may find some troubles with the user you create and his /home, but 
making chmod "user":"user" /home/user solves them.

My LTSP is in a Virtual Machine, so it's easier to create a Disk to 
/home and keep RAID1.

Regards!
