I had to run apt-get dis-upgrade -u numerous times (at least twenty times) with varying cd changes to upgrade my hamm test system to slink. Occasionally, even --fix-missing (?, don't remember :-( ) was necessary. Some packages (notably doc-linux-html, doc-linux-text and jail) couldn't be upgraded, I removed and immediately re-installed them with apt-get. I am finally at a point where apt-get dist-upgrade says "0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded" so I think the update is finished. How do I verify that I now actually havea slink system? Greetings Marc -- -------------------------------------- !!
