Teething Troubles--It's like climbing up a sand dune. This protecting me from
myself is getting terribly frustrating. I want to do work not continually
chase
the user interface.
My poor old system died, and I resurrected it by moving the disks to an older
system. For who knows what reason, the kernel has decided to call the external
USB drive I use for backups /dev/sda (the old system called it /dev/sdc). My
internal sata disks are being called /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc.
I don't see an option in preupgrade to go from F13 i686 to F14 x86_64.
Is it possible?
