Upgrade from potato to debian
Hello all,
I am trying to get my system upgraded from potato to woody. The
servers in question are production servers. I have mysql databases and more
such programs running off of these servers. How would a dselect upgrade
affect all of this? Does an upgrade affect Apache web service? I will take
a complete back-up of my systems. I will use tar for this purpose.
I have been reading the mailing lists for related problems and the
upgrade manual as well
(http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html).
However, at the end of this document it says that the kernel is not
upgraded to a newer version? How would it affect if I don't upgrade the
kernel to 2.4 at all?
I would love get some pointers from all you gurus before I dive into
upgrading my systems.
Many thanks,
Shashank
