Just read a thread on Mandrake Forum..... And it confirms what I did... don't wipe, upgrade. I went granted from beta2 to 9.0 release without a problem. But the guy doing the thread went from 5.3 to 9.0 without a hitch or hiccup. (claimed the hardest part was finding the hardware that would run 5.3) They are asking for people to try upgrades even from non MDK Linux!.... So if you are going to wipe it any way..... why not give the upgrade a whirl...
