Depends on the other sources you have in your sources.list. If you use third party packages, they might not yet support Sarge, so you should remove them, but if you do so, you won't get any updates of that packages. Do you use any Packages, which are not from Debian? > Is this all that is needed to have it upgraded? Am I missing > something? Any other considerations? First: The above might not work, if you have "stable" instead of "woody" in your sources.list. Second: It might fail, if you have CD-ROM sources in your sources.list. Third: It will fail, if you don't run an "apt-get update" befor dist-upgrading. It might be a good idea, to first run "apt-get install apt dpkg" before running the dist-upgrade.
