Since for the most part the unofficial sarge was built from the same sources as official sarge, I believe almost all cases could upgrade with a simple apt-get dist-upgrade (is there an upgrade-dist option?). Certainly from etch to lenny amd64 is no different than any other debian architecture and of course a dist-upgrade should work. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
