Even though the sources list are all the same, that doesn't tell us what they are. Send them along. It also depends on if the one 'busy' box has a lot more packages installed. OTOH, I'm running Etch on three boxes. I just did a minimal install on a 486 (surrogatly) and the only security update is the kernel. My other i386 box that I installed fro CD1 has more stuff and I think it has had more updates required. My third box is an amd64 that I've been running since Etch was beta-3; it has has _many_ updates. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
