I had upgraded before the problems occured and it all worked fine. I
noticed a disk problem and tried a new install. That worked fine, but when
I went to restore from tape, I had some errors which broke my system even
worse than before (not HAMM's fault!). I reinstalled bo from CD and am
now trying the upgrade again (from Scott's excellent script).
I got through the initial part using the ftp method and had only one file
missed (libc5). I downloaded that and re-ran the script and it went very
smoothly. Dselect didn't report any missing dependencies, which looks
promising.
I'm now letting dselect grab a bunch of other stuff and will then reboot.
It looks very good so far. The test will come when I reboot.
