1/ The upgrade process for other releases recommended the use of aptitude

This is in chapter 4: Upgrades from Lenny, so seems to actually apply to major

The e2fsprogs tools only deal with the needs specific to
ext[234] partitions. Sliding a partition can be done for any partition
you like with `dd'.

Hi,
I was trying for ages to build a KVM virtual machine using virt-install
and it always failed, tried KVM command directly following Gentoo
