I read a while back that changing from certain profiles to certain other profiles is impossible without a complete reinstall. I'd like to change to hardened/amd64/multilib but also have the option to switch to default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop if I have problems with a hardened profile like I do on my laptop. Can I do all that? - Grant
