Oh you can upgrade to 5.0, it's just if your file system was created with a previous version then you won't get to use all the new features. I would imagine if you still had a file system created under 2.3 you could mount it on 5.0. Just you would be missing a bunch of features like support for more than 2 billion files, or the ability to mount in on Windows or ... JAB. -- Jonathan A.
