Ok, I found David Bandel's StepbyStep for upgrading glibc. Is this still
current?
Yup. I used it last month.
The current glibc is 2.3. Is that safe to put onto a caldera 2.4 box?
The most recent stable release i think is 2.2.5. 2.3 i think is still a
beta release.
David's StepByStep didn't say what do do if you trashed your system. I can
Backup /lib before you start. If it all goes to hell, make sure you
have something like Knoppix or the Linuxcare BBC ready so you can
restore /lib.
dual boot into another distro of linux if necessary, so I don't have to
worry about a boot disk and all. But, what files would have to be restored
and what file removed if the installation failed?
or that plan will work too. Just /lib needs to be restored.
