Roleigh, Running up2date on a version (in your case 7.2) will give you all updates built and released for 7.2, what you might call net changes. Not everything in 7.3 will appear in 7.2.
Upgrading will do a more wholesale overhaul, added packages, major version releases, etc. And yes, 7.3 has an option will allow you to upgrade an existing install. --jeremy On Sun, 2002-05-12 at 15:24, Roleigh Martin wrote: > What do you mean by upgrade?
