The way I do it if I want an unstable package is to add unstable to my

apt-get update
apt-get install package -s
If all looks OK then I go ahead and do it. Sometimes it will want to
upgrade a whole lot of stuff, in which case I don't do it.

When you want to do system things, the su command will prompt you for the

When you say you copied the files to the new partitions, do you mean you
used cp? This doesn't preserve the permissions - you should have used tar
instead. I don't know of a fix besides chmod 777 (horrible!) or
reinstalling. At least you still have your /home.
