Now that I'm able to find them for psyche, I'll continue to upgrade with each release. The only problem I have is an occasional bad burn .. I don't know if it's software, bad cd's, or perhaps some more mundane problem (like slight corrosion on my cables). I keep upgrading the software just to eliminate a possible bug. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
