Most defenitly. upgrading like that won't work at all. You have to use the upgrade via the instalation process. After the first boot you have to update all changes in /etc with for example etc-update (contribs) But then again, it still is a tedious process that can easily fail. The best thing to do is to back up and to reinstall. But nobody ever listens to that advice. Groetjes, Han. -- http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanb/software
