Just recieved my pkg 8.1 ...
*sigh*. It looks like the people of Northern Neptune will get 8.1 before me. Yet again.
I'm "updating" a testbed to see what happens <G> but it seems, so far, easy peasy and the only thing that might give a reletive newbie any pause is the "conflict" resolutions ... So that is where I will look for dificulties , when it's completeed.

I'm sorry, but I can't even begine to guess what that means :)
is that it says there is more than 1hr to go on the first disk ! That's a lot of stuff on one disk !...
Updates always take a lot longer than clean installs. There's usually a lot to do besides just installing packages. Such as determining which packages to install/update and removing the old ones. With a slow disk that can take aeons.
I still wish I had the capability to use the dvd .. a real set and forget install then <VBG>
Or you could copy the contents of the CDs to a hard drive and install from there. /me wants 8.1 //Anders
