Thanks Andy,

I may have my version numbers wrong, but I guess the idea is there. 
Chuck the old release and start anew.  But this beckons the problem od 
merging my old files with the new release (actually this is an issue 
with all major upgrades).  I can't just save "/etc" and overwrite the 
new release.  Hrm... be nice if there was a migration tool that did this 
for me.
