To perform a full system upgrade, do this (as root):
# slackpkg update # slackpkg install-new # slackpkg upgrade-all # slackpkg clean-system
To upgrade from previous versions of slackware this works
1. Edit slackpkg.mirrors to point at mirror of version to upgrade
2. Run "slackpkg update" "slackpkg upgrade tgz" "slackpkg install tgz"
3. Edit you slackpkg.mirrors again and slackpkg.blacklist to allow updating of aaa_elflibs
4. slackpkg install-new
5. slackpkg upgrade-all
6. Depending on version upgrading from may need to edit /etc/fstab to reflect the change
in naming of ide drives from hda to sda if you have ide drives.
7. rerun liloconfig
