Shouldn't be a problem. I've done two upgrades (one live, one in vmware) about a month ago and they worked without a hitch. The vmware had some issues with my gnome desktop, but that could have been because it was "fresh" (I installed 9.1, booted, logged in as root, changed the media urpmi was looking for, and did an --auto-select). The live system was a 9.1 machine with all kinds of stuff on it, upgrade to cooker (b2-ish, I think) and I'm still working on that machine with no ill effects. A urpmi --auto-select pointing to new sources can be a real live update. =) -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ "lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import" {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD}
