When you upgrade to 2.1.6, do you basically have to re-install from scratch
and format? Of course one "should always do a full backup before upgrading"
but assuming all goes well and perfect, do you have to in order to resume
normal operations with a new os?

Anyone know if if the mickysoft95 filesystem bug was fixed in 2.1.6? (The
one that trashed the entire filesystem when you did a find on a mounted
dos partition)
