Hi all, I have had this happen to me now three times. I have been using Demudi. When I last installed Demudi it cames with a sources list that showed debian testing.
But actually after installing many apps I needed they wrote a letter saying not to use testing. Now again I have a system that works perfectily. I have mutt working finally, I have my win4lin setup and my wine setup java, my scanner/printer etc. but I can't install applications without dependency hell. You know what I mean i want to install development stuff but end up with that giant list of items to remove which includes my entire system. Or just a deadend where my base packages interfere with installation. That said, What I want to do is do a backup whereby: All my settings will be preserved. the more esoteric apps will be ready for me when I start (mutt-ng)/win4lin kernel and apps I will have a clean system based on only one release of debian. I would actually like to have the demudi stuff as well. other I have usb flash memory cards 1gig and 128mg. I am not sure if this is enough room to do the backup I need? What should I use to backup with and how do I ensure that the files remain uncorrupted? The other option is a dist upgrade, which I have to date never been successful with. Any advice before I dive off the deep end into an empty swimming pool (taskpool?) would be most appreciated.
