Hi! I am finally able to install Debian Sarge (3.1) on my system. Here is the system config
MoBo: MSI - K8MM-V CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3000+ MEM: 512 MB HDD: 40 GB Mextor SATA CD/DVD: Samsung Combo Now I am thinking of upgrading the Sarge to Etch. Added following repository to source.lst deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian etch main contrib done # apt-get update Now # apt-get upgrade Tells me it will download 75 (71.8MB) upgraded packages # apt-get dist-upgrade Selects 737 upgraded, 345 newly installed, 55 to remove and 2 not upgraded and will download 667MB. :-( Do you think my system will survive this upgrade? Is there any way I can selectively upgrade only important packages like X11? TIA for your help and support. With regards, -- --Dinesh Shah :-) -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
