As you can see from the following pages, the installation image you should get is different for testing and stable. http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ http://www.debian.org/releases/etch/debian-installer/ You can just follow the standard procedure to upgrade without problems, http://www.ducea.com/2008/12/08/howto-upgrade-from-debian-etch-to-lenny/ but if I had no reason at all to start by upgrading an older system, I would prefer to start over. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
