Hi
I know I saw a thread discussing the changes to backup/restore and other possible problems somewhere. I can't seem to find it. It's about time to upgrade to the latest release and I know there are some gotchas. If you can point me to the original thread great. If you can give me an idea as to how your upgrade went even better.

Thanks

My personal upgrade was the same as always. I don't use backup/restore, so apparently there was no extra work needed.

Thanks
None of my searches came up with that thread. I use backup/restore to save my home directory and my network settings. It is a better option for me than a persistent home. The changes to filetool.lst and xfiletool.lst will make a big difference to my system.
Thanks again
