Up2Date 2.026 --> 3.2

Hi,

having read a couple of Posts on the Up2Date-Issue from 2.X --> 3.2, I am still confused about when this will be possible.
Some posts seem to mention early June, then there's some promising the 2nd week of June.
Is there a resolve yet and I am just too blind to notice or is it still to come in the near future? If the latter is there any indication as to when this future will become present?

Thanks :-)

This is available now. You need to be running 2.25 version. Save the backup file then install 3.2 Restore the backup file.

There are however some issues. Check the known issues document.

OK, not bad for starters.
In the other threads I got the idea that not even a reinstall is necessary, though. To update the Astaro live. Is that going to be possible, too?

Thanks again,
florg

Hey everybody,

in the "Announcements"-board Jan Hichert writes on 23 May 2002:
"[...] plus we will have an Up2Date option in 2.026 which directly brings you to 3.200*, both will be ready by 2nd week of June [...]"; okay, later he mentions, this is not really recommended, but sometimes online-updates are quite necessary.
Well, I never read an oppositional statement. Would be rather glad to hear someone say "online-update from 2.026 to 3.2 is *not* possible". [:)]

As far as I understand it:

Upgrade from 2.025 to 3.2XX will be possible via an up-2-date that is yet to be released.
=OR=
Save your backup of 2.025, do a fresh install of 3.2XX and then restore the backup.

Preferred way is the latter.

Hi alltogether,

Imagine that we have to partion and to format
harddrives on the fly - this means a lot of testing for us!!!

For some reason the process of backing up the 2.27 PC and restoring it to the 3.207 PC is not working for me.

How is the testing going?
Will we see an up2date for this any time soon?

Your last update on this subject was a month ago.

We'll publish the required files no Monday, 26th of August. Upgrading with the current ISO (Cd) is not possible, you'll need some special files.
