okay, I'm going to take the plunge and forget about using ''woody'' & trying to upgrade the kernel (too many dependencies issues) and go str for ''sarge''... so, I presume I might as well just wipe the current (non-WinXP!) partitions and start from scratch -- does that make sense?
You don't have to reinstall - you can just, - replace 'woody' or 'stable' with 'sarge' in /etc/apt/sources.list - apt-get update - apt-get upgrade - apt-get dist-upgrade
That should give you a functional debian/sarge :) If you have sarge CDs, just do - apt-cdrom add for all of them, and then - apt-get upgrade - apt-get dist-upgrade
HTH,
Joris
