Both are "correct", but different. If you leave "woody" in there, repeated 'apt-get upgrade's over time will leave you following the "woody" distribution, even after it becomes frozen and eventually stable. If you change it to "unstable", you will always track the release that is considered "unstable"; this will be a different release with some as-of-yet undetermined name when woody freezes. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
