Don't worry. I have my /home dir in a separate partition. I'm
beginning to think it's easier to re-install slink from my CD-rom and
then begin doing upgrades - but not mixing slink with potato...

And later I'll upgrade to potato.

Anyway - how do I upgrade to potato?

Just include frozen in sources.list, apt-get update, and then (not
running X), apt-get upgrade?

Is that all, os is there something else I have to know?
