while upgrades are a "breeze" when using Debian, downgrades were never supported AFAIK. It is better to take sometime and make a better decision (the first time itself) as to which distribution is right for you. For more info on choosing the debian distribution appropriate for you, readUnfortunately, there is no mechanism in Debian to let you reinstall easily. So you have to go through the "10 times" approach -- it took me several (>=3) days to fully downgrade from Debian testing to Debian stable, after a single update command... Oh, wait, I still have "17 not upgraded" packages...
