Re: Changing from stable to testing.....

Hi Whit, 

last time I tried to dist-upgrade to squeeze, I got stuck in an 
(for me) unresolvable loop: 
The system wanted to upgrade the kernel-image and udev in one run - 
which failed. apt-get always complained, that the kernel-image needs the 
new udev-package to upgrade - and udev itself needed the new 
kernel-image... 

I don't know, if this problem still exists - if yes: you should find a 
way of not getting into this loop, where no "apt-get -f install" helped 
to stop this. I reinstalled lenny after this... ;) 

Best regards, 
sigi
