Ugh, I hated it. It broke & borked 3/4 of my installation. I got 3/4 of the way through its patches, but it patches stuff I wasn't sure it should & others that just stopped working AFTER it patched it! *GAH!*
I have a separate partition for "test OSes", its a 10gb partition *ya i've got a large HDD*. So i may do that Damian. And don't' get me started about reinstalling! I was reading an article the other day that said you should never have to reinstall linux. BS! *Sigh* Anyway i'll stop wasting bandwidth with my ranting.
