Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Digest Number 3365

There are no guarantees whenever you upgrade. This applies to any OS and any
architecture. There were many problems with the Snow Leopard upgrade and
with Windows 7 that left users without operable computers. The only
difference is that youa re not out of pocket with Linux. It is ALWAYS
preferable to do a fresh installation for many reasons, but in all cases you
start with a clean slate. Only then can you blame the developers, not that
it helps.

Your quickest and safest route is not troubleshoot but to do clean
installation from a CD or usb key. Anything else is a potential waste of
time.
