Re: How to upgrade 6 - 7
Kristen,
I would never recommend attempting a dist upgrade to unstable. I've
tried it twice in the past, and both times led to reinstalling the
from scratch. Dependencies get mixed up, and you're left with a highly
unstable "bastardized" system.

at some point in their lives will look back at this man taking that
very first step and they will never ever forget it." - The Doctor
