Tom,
before I try this (that sounds easy :-) ), do you really think that a
expert/upgrade install will make all the changes? Since my fstab, lilo.conf
and whatever conf file that may be involved with the boot-up process has
references to the "old" setup, the upgrade install will read these values and
correct them???
By the way... I forgot to say that I have enough free space to make a partition
to back-up my entire linux system... maube ghost would make these changes???
TIA
