I would change the sources.list to point to 'sarge' or 'oldstable' instead of stable. Then do an update, then put the sources back to stable or etch and /then/ dist-upgrade. Dist-upgrading from an install that is not fully updated is risking serious trouble. -t _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
