Is there going to be an updated script for going from 1.6 to 1.7? I'll wait patiently, but was just curious. By the way, I am new enough to Linux to ask a (probably stupid) question, but is it possible to upgrade from the dvd, without losing all settings and customizations. I know that with Win XP you can do a "dirty install" over the top to sometimes correct corruption problems. If not, I will wait for a script. Again, thanks for the superb job on 1.6 and previous editions.
I am really hard pressed on what I can accomplish, I have very little time to work on the upgrade script, I was hoping I would have time to clean up the USplash maker, while I was off on vacation. Seems like the only thing I accomplished was the release of
Ultimate Edition 1.7, I would suggest a full install of Ultimate Edition 1.7, it does not look good for the upgrade script, I currently don't have time working 3 jobs. There is a tool called sbackup that will backup your settings you can install Ultimate Edition 1.7 and restore your setting, I have not tried this personally but imagine it would work.
I am sorry I could not be of more help. Welcome to the board.
Best regards,
TheeMahn
