Hi all,

I currently run Slimserver 6.5 from the SVN 6.5 branch on Debian, using
my own MySQL instance, rather than one started specifically for
SlimServer. 

I'm considering giving v7.0 a whirl (also from SVN) and ideally would
like to keep my 6.5 installation available to go back to should I hit
any issues.

Can anyone please confirm what I'd need to do? I'm hoping it's as
simple as taking a backup of the config file, editing my startup script
to pick up the software from the new v7 directory and restarting the
server.

Any other gotchas I should consider? Are the database formats similar
enough to be able to switch between the two running versions?

In terms of plugins, the one I find invaluable is LazySearch, and also
have the SQL Dynamic Playlist one, as well as AlienBBC. Do these all
have functioning v7 equivalents? I'd be lost without LazySearch, but
could probably live without the other two for a short while until
they're fully ready if they're not already.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Andy
