Hello,

if this can help (some peole will probably do an upgrade instead of a
fresh installation)
I've done an upgrade of a 5.0.4 installation on real hardware with the
DVD  because this machine is not connected to internet.
This is a french-canadian installation with both mainserver+thin
client server on the same machine.

# mount /cdrom
# apt-cdrom add -m
# aptitude update
# aptitude upgrade
resulted in 226 pkg updated, 7 newly installed and 6 removed.

Strangely, "apt-cdrom add" failed to mount the disc ? I had to mount
before then pass the "-m" argument.

I haven't found in the documentation/wiki a section "Upgrade using a
DVD-ROM media", maybe we should add it.

debian-edu-test-install gives me:

one error: /boot is ext2 (instead of ext3?)
one warning: timezone for locale "fr_CA.UTF-8" is not known   (what is this?)

I've connected a thin client, it seems ok.
Tell me if I can do some more tests.

thanks
Olivier
