Why not? It workes perfectly for me: 1. Point your sources.list to woody. 2. an an apt-get update, _don't_ do an apt-get upgrade 3. Install the packages from woody you'd like, apt-get will take care of dependencies. Use apt-get's option -s to see what it is going to install. 4. Point sources.list to potato again. 5. Do an apt-get update Christoph
