Hello I have a Debian/unstable installation which is now used by other family members, so I want to switch it to Etch (now or when Etch becomes stable). I do not care too much if some things would not be exactly like in the coming stable Etch release, but I do want security updates (without the danger of destroying the system by an update).
I do know that downgrading is not really supported by aptitude, but I think that these days where Etch will soon become stable I could probably just change my /etc/apt/sources.list to point to Etch instead of unstable and have more or less an Etch system after a while (I'm using aptitude and the sid system is up to date). Or is there more involved? When is the best time to do the switch? Thank you for insights, Robert Epprecht -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
