[Sderby] Upgrading

[Malcolm Neal]

Hi Dave
 
This will be of no help at all but I know how you feel.  
 
I have just had the new computer and will be installing Linux but probably Red Hat as I can get a very up to date dvd of the whole install from Catherine at Cambridge.  As usual I will install to a separate hard drive from my windows disk, having put a small 30 gig drive in just for that purpose.
 
Will have to meet for a drink sometime soon
 
Cheers
 
Malcolm

	Sorry if I'm being a bit thick but I would like to upgrade my Suse 7.2
	the hard way. What I can't fathom is that on the Suse ftp page the
	directories are marked 7.2,7.3 etc. Does that mean that if I wish to
	convert from 7.2 to 7.3 I have to download all of the 7.2 directory or
	all of the 7.3 one and install. The directory in question is on Suse ftp
	page under discontinued/i386/upgrade.
	I know this sounds silly to all you experts but I think everyone should
	try to keep the system up to date occasionally, as part of the Linux ethos.
	Don't laugh too loud though!!!
	Cheers David Coulson
