I assume you're going from RAAbuntu/1.7.2 to Centos/2.x.x.

As far as Unix file systems go, Centos and Ubuntu are exactly the same.

Make sure you make a backup of your database and keep it on a separate drive, I kept ours on a thumb drive. When you load the new version of Rivendell, it will install a new blank database. It your database happens to be in the way it gets smashed. Once the new Rivendell is all installed, restore the database from your secret stash and Rivendell will convert it to the new schema. The /snd files don't change.

If you can, as with any big upgrade, a complete backup is a good idea.

Hi Folks,

We have been running RAAbuntu and are switching over to the Paravel systems version with Centos. On our RAAbuntu system, we have all our audio files on a separate drive which we've linked to the /snd directory.

I wondered if there's a preferred method for our doing the same on our new Paravel system? If so, would anyone be so kind as to explain it or point me in the right direction?

many thanks!
Rene
