upgrade netbase and netstd by hand with dpkg before running dselect to minimise NFS downtime. 1. run the auto upgrade script to get safely to a libc6 system 2. run "dpkg -i" on netbase and netstd 3. run dselect and upgrade everything. craig -- craig sanders -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
