The problem is that so long as asking a basic question without searching first remains a viable tactic towards getting what they want, they are never going to bother to search in the first place. Resist the urge to feed the newbs.

It is, by providing answers. The answers you seek are already posted here... many many many times. There is a secret way to find those answers, but I can't reveal it.

Join my club!

Thank you. What about deleting all your repositories before upgrading? There are more than a few posts stating that one should delete all repositories since the the 2008 version has a lot of them built in and then reloading new 2008 versions. (still learning)

After I flashed the new OS and it loaded my backup, it had removed the old, incompatible repositories.
