7.5 has already had some significant changes made in how writes are done to disk. If I had very valuable data to protect I would already consider 7.5 a risky upgrade (in comparison to the 7.3 to 7.4 upgrade). If this is your situation, going to 7.4.3 and sticking with it for a while waiting to see how 7.5 does, may be a good idea. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
