I'm running wheezy on all my machines except my server, with no problems. My apt/sources.list ways 'testing' or 'wheezy'; I set it to that the day sqeeze went stable. But I'm using icewm and xfce as window managers. I've tried upgrading my server from squeeze to wheezy several times and have had horrendous diffculty. My system resides on lvm over RAID. squeeze's Lilo has trouble booting the wheezy kernel. It seemms that sonething is too big for it. squeeze's grub manages. If while upgrading you don't establish bootablity of wheeze before the first reboot, you/re stuck. If you get past those hurdles, there are others. Finally, upgrading all the packages is dependency hell. As I said, I tried twice last October to December. Each time I had to revert to squeeze (of whichh I still had an intact copy on other partitions) Maybe things are better now, Maybe the upgrade problems are some of the relese-critical bugs, New installation, though, is easy, as long as you don't have a lot of configuration infrastructure. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
