Please excuse the dumb question, but: Is this still the recommended way to upgrade from Sarge to Etch?: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html That page makes it out like using aptitude is somehow better than apt-get. I've never used aptitude, only apt-get, I'm quite comfortable with all the apt-* tools. It apt-get dist-upgrade just as good? Thanks, JW
