what they're saying is, edit /etc/apt/sources.list, and replace all instances of the word "woody" with the word "sarge", then save the file. Those lines beginning with ':' are a shortcut to do that in the "vi" editor. then, from the shell, type: apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade (they left out the apt-get update, I'm pretty sure that's necessary) good luck! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
