Of course. But that does not mean that an upgrade is not necessary. Dan
said himself that it should work, and (if I understood correctly) that
it probably will work in the future.
I only run YDL on a workstation at the moment, but also here it would
save me a lot of time if I could just upgrade, or at least save my data.
Maybe I am too spoiled by the intel linuxes, I know that only a year ago
getting my iBook to boot was extremely difficult, so this is already a
major step forward (in fact, that is why I bought YDL, to support the
development).

Well, call me cynical, but how do you know that it is fantastic if you
haven't even installed it yet?
Best regards,
Helena (who will hopefully receive YDL tomorrow, and who will hopefully
be just as enthousiastic as you are)
