I am about to cobvert a system from Red Hat to Debian. Idealy I would do a fresh install from scratch, but am trying to avoid this. While at the Linux Expo in NYC last month, the Debian Booth people reccomended a program that I think they reffered to as "Debian Hijack" or something similar, to convert the directory structure, etc... prior to performing a Debian 3.0 upgrade. Does anyone know what program they are reffering to and it's source? Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks!

This is what you are talking about:

Experimentation never hurts. Backup your system first, so that you can perform a full install and import settings.

I'd probably try the script, then do a full install anyway.
