No, no reinstall should be required - for me, one of the great things about Debian is that it supports in-place upgrades on running systems (you don't have to boot an installer or anything). Just pointing apt or dselect at a source of potato packages and upgrading should DTRT. I don't think there's any major breakage in potato right now. -- Mark Brown mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Trying to avoid grumpiness) http://www.tardis.ed.ac.uk/~broonie/ EUFS http://www.eusa.ed.ac.uk/societies/filmsoc/
