[Lots of really good advice - print it out and pin it to the noticeboard] A few extra thoughts: With CD-Rs as cheap as they are, there's no excuse for not backing up every damn thing before you start... I agree that a fresh install is a much safer plan than an upgrade. Hopefully, when you set up your RH8 box, you split /home /usr /var etc into hda1, hda2, hda3.. etc so you can preserve the bits you want and trash the rest. My upgrade went pretty smoothly, though the install script didn't configure all the services correctly. Be prepared to spend an hour or two finding the elusive entry in (e.g.) the gdm config files that you forgot about. Print out the old v3 docs - they're the best there is for bug hunting. One tip: keep your old /opt/ltsp for v3 and install v4 into a new directory/opt/ltsp-4 Good luck - John ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
