2007/3/10, Francesco Pietra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Though a trivial question for most (not me), what is
the correct procedure AT THIS TIME to bring etch to
sid?
As others said before, sid/unstable will never be something else.
So /etc/apt/sources.list must point to sid or unstable to bring etch to sid.
Leaving it sources.list point to etch, actually a symlink to testing, will
suddenly (when etch will be released) bring you to stable.
At that time a "new testing" will born and a new codename will be assigned
to.

the way for both amd64 and i386? I assume that this
upgrades the Linux kernel too. What about X? (I do not
use nVidia drivers, enough 2D acceleration in my
case). My amd64 machine is raid1.
Release process is the same for both amd64 and i386 archs.
etch will ships kernel 2.6.18
