A small info on the server that I wan't to update. It's a Database server with MySQL 5.1.45, PostgreSQL 9.1.8, and the most problematic one is ArcSDE 10.1 DB connector which has some dependant X11 libraries. I don't know how it will react with upgraded kernel headers, Gawk, e2fs and especially udev. And for udev I also dread if the bonding of 4 network cards and the Adaptec RAID adapter will have problems. As I said I can turn off the machine only for 3 hrs and that is the complete fallout that it can have for this year. So I would go with less if I can. The DB backup will take me 20mins, the filesystem adaptation another 15min, and then I have 2:25hrs for problems. I would like to have no problems. :) This machine has been offline for 2hrs in summary for the past 4yrs. I even thought to put another machine in its place until I finish the compilation but unfortunatly I don't have another machine which could cope with the load. > I updated the lfs livecd a while back to build 7.x versions. you can > look at my notes to see what I upgraded.

And thank you for your answer. Daniel
