You don't need to do $ mv ~/.mozilla/iceweasel ~/.mozilla/iceweasel.hold as it is a clean profile and can be created any time you want. You can just remove it and mv the firefox profile to iceweasel with the second command. But I don't think there have been any chances to profile structure that will make it unusable. So yes, it will work. /KS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
