Thanks for the advice Robert.

Although i was thinking about it i don't want to do it
now because the server is in production and i don't
have a way of restoring everything very quickly if
something goes wrong or broken.

I was hopping that there was a way of fixing this and
when i have the necessary resources (time, another hd,
...) i would do this upgrade.

I think that testing is now "stable" enough to be used
on a internal server, do you agree ?
