1. Download the new Ubuntu (e.g. to CD)
2. Take a backup of your current system
3. Boot from CD and let it update

Step 2) is probably the most important

Ubuntu 11.04 is yet in alpha stage (unstable release), so this is not for the weak hearted and people who require anger management sessions! it might be frustrating at times...
