Do you think that typing:
Code:
# netpkg upgrade-config

is a very difficult thing ?

It's just to update your conf. files.
::)

Cheers.

Tv: look at it this way: if you back up your settings, reinstalling takes 15 minutes, and putting everything back a few seconds :). And you got yourself a clean system ;).

netpkg upgrade-config can mess up your system as well :). And fairly bad ;). Replacing rc.modules, /etc/password, ...

Sorry, but it asks you if you want to replace files or not.

It does... But what will an inexperienced user do, if he's told to run upgrade-config? Say yes of course...

I have a machine still running 2.01 with no problems.

As long as we inform you with a post such as this you should have no difficulty upgrading.

Remember, we are here to help, so just ask before you take the leap.
