Anybody else? FWIW, 7.8, all 3 dvd's in amd64 format, is being downloaded 
now. So I'll give it one more try.

But, I need to recover the emails that came in while I was running wheezy.  
Does rsync have an update syntax that can do that.  I also have yet, 
leftovers from the initial kmail install 13 years ago, 3 or four 
directorys that are still in mailfile format and quite slow to access so I 
will do that conversion by hand before trying 7.8.

I assume it has a name, is this 7.8=Jessie?

Cheers, Gene Heskett
