I like to upgrade in steps, apt-get upgrade Then if there are any packages that fail do: dpkg --configure -a Then incrementally get the system installed by those 2 commands. Upgrades any packages that have direct replacements, apt-get dist-upgrade Upgrades packages that require new packages, conflicts or removes packages. Then same as above if there are any problems on this stage. Adrian -- 24x7x365 != 24x7x52 Stupid or bad maths? <erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
