I can find lots of references to this procedure > Backup installed package list on current machine dpkg --get-selections > > selections.txt move selections.txt to the new machine Set package > list on new machine and install packages dpkg --set-selections < > selections.txt apt-get update apt-get upgrade What I can't find, but I know I've seen, is a way to do it using aptitude that preserves aptitude's knowledge of what was installed manually vs automatically. Can someone throw me a link (or a cluestick) Brian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
