Re: SlackWare 14.0 > 14.1 upgrade
hi,

Is it possible to install the new 14.1 version of SlackWare over
an existing 14.0 older version, using nothing more than slackpkg?

I'd be curious what syntax is required, if it takes nothing more than slackpkg, to upgrade the old version?

yours,
coner

Yes it is possible. Look at the System Upgrade procedure on this SlackDocs page http://docs.slackware.com/howtos:sla...ystemupgrade?s

I wrote a little HOWTO on the subject. It's in French, but the commands are all still the same.
