Backing up is always a wise thing, won't argue there:) But i didn't do anything drastic, as i mentioned in another reply this kernel has been running stable for weeks/months. I didn't change a thing except for running a dselect update and letting it install the packages which needed updating. Something i, and i assume most others runnig SID, do every day.
cheers, Willem

Get sufficient disk space - HDD's certainly are cheap now.
Get partimage and save your partition to disk before doing drastic things.
I run 5 Debian partitions and on the current one with Backstreet Ruby, the multiseat-Linux, I wanted to see if openoffice would read pdf files.
But if not, then I don't want it.
So I saved the partition, apt-getted openoffice.org, tested it and restored the saved partition.
Faultless.
