The point being, a simple backup/restore will allow you to do a fresh install and eliminate any and all lingering 'upgrade' issues.
David ...
that is a handy looking little script, and I am quite sure I will avail myself of it to test an "upgrade" process myself.
I've been told before that this is a "better" upgrade procedure, and have done it once going from Sled 10 to SLED 10 sp1 and all seemed to go well ... but a nagging doubt lingers:
I personally prefer doing an upgrade by, er... doing an upgrade :-) This system I'm using has been upgraded several times, in steps, from 8.1 to 11.0, without major hurdles. It can't be so bad. In any case, a full backup is always a good thing. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
