If you want to compile things yourself, I'm afraid I can't help you, but if you just want the debian packages: # nano /etc/apt/sources.list (change stable to woody/testing) # apt-get update # apt-get install apt apt-utils dpkg debconf # apt-get -dy dist-upgrade (just download, doesn't require interference) # apt-get dist-upgrade this has always worked for me good luck, Joris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
