  • Would it be a bad idea not to wait for the upgrade but simply download the 2.0-iso, backup my 1.8 config, do a fresh 2.0 install and than restore the config?

    (I know, this isn't Windows where a fresh install is always the best thing to do ...   [;)] )
  • That would cause at least 30 minute downtime. We are running ASP services in our network, so we can't afford that.

    Few minute downtime caused by updating is acceptable.
  • Hi all,

    restore of the config works.
    Please stay patient for the 1.8->2.0 Up2Date: there are a lot of test cases (because the new booting concept with initrd, first partition boot, checking the filesystem during booting and so on - and after the Up2Date your old 1.8 have to look like a new installed 2.0 ....) - we work hard on it.
