As this is an upgrade issue and not an installation issue, I'm reassigning your report to the correct place. Note that the Debian project is currently preparing the Lenny release, so I doubt upgrade issues from Sarge to Etch will get much attention anymore. I assume you _did_ follow the upgrade instructions documented in the Etch release notes? If not, then it is quite possible your problems could have been avoided by following those instructions.
