Re: How to upgrade to woody?
I wouldn't worry at all about needing to reinstall from scratch.
I have some Debian _2.0_ CDs, and I installed them, upgraded to Potato
over the net, and from there to Woody. No real problems at all.
Just a couple of weeks or so ago, I installed Potato from CD on a VMWare
virtual machine, then upgraded it to Woody and I had no serious
problems. You may run into a few minor glitches, where the dist-upgrade
may stop. Just run it again. If you get to a point where everything
except one or two packages is configured, but the last one or two won't,
then you can ask here or maybe just try removing and reinstalling them.
Really, you'll be surprised how easy it is.
