Tried both upgrade and dist-upgrade, can't be certain now but one gave a
bunch of errors and declined to work. The one that did loaded 57 files
including pcima stuff which I did not have or want and libc6 v2.1.96-1.
Apt-get update failed after the files were installed, so now I have two
installs on separate drives which are non-updateable.:-(
Am I the only one woody doesn't like ?
