If /home, /var and any special data directories are on separate partitions, then I'd "just" back them up, along with /etc, and start from scratch. You can tell the Debian installer *not* to format certain partitions; thus you can save /home, /var, etc. It worked fine for me when I "upgraded" from Mandrake. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jefferson, LA USA "...always eager to extend a friendly claw" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
