Yes, looked at that - but being a glutton for punishment at heart
I decided to try the cvsup path. 
I was trying to use the cvsup release that came with 2.2, but just upgraded 
to the latest version 16.1, and on first run it seems to have
found a lot of new stuff the old one missed ???

anyway - if all else fails :-)... I'l buy the 4.2 CD, or use the 
4.0 RELEASE I have here, and then cvsup that one.

and failing all that - if I badly crash the system, I'll just have
to upgrade from scratch :-)

cheers
Robert
