I had upgraded before the problems occured and it all worked fine. I noticed a disk problem and tried a new install. That worked fine, but when I went to restore from tape, I had some errors which broke my system even worse than before (not HAMM's fault!). I reinstalled bo from CD and am now trying the upgrade again (from Scott's excellent script). I got through the initial part using the ftp method and had only one file missed (libc5). I downloaded that and re-ran the script and it went very smoothly. Dselect didn't report any missing dependencies, which looks promising. I'm now letting dselect grab a bunch of other stuff and will then reboot. It looks very good so far. The test will come when I reboot.
