I will be converting from Woody to Sarge real soon now. :-) Are these steps correct? 1. apt-get update 2. If necessary apt-get upgrade 3. change sources.list to point to Sarge 4. apt-get update 5. apt-get upgrade 6. perform step 5 as necessary 7. apt-get dist-upgrade I don't want to use aptitude as I have a small HD (1.3G) and need to restrict packages. Then again maybe I can tweak aptitude not to pull in 'reccommends' and 'suggests' packages? How have other people found going from Woody to Sarge? -- Chris. ====== -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
