I've pretty well decided that the best process for me to upgrade my server/workstation from Slackware-13.1/32-bit to -13.37/64-bit is to install the latter on a new drive connected externally (along with the compat32 libraries), then copy over those 32-bit applications that I need. This prevents me from losing something by overwriting the one drive.
I have an external USB-connected cd/dvd optical drive, the USB-connected external hard drive adapter, and the distribution DVD but I don't know if these can be interconnected so the external drive is the target for the installation. Can this be done? If so, how? Rich _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
