Anyway, you shouldn't do a downgrade with sources. 4.9 is very different when comparing it with 5.2.1. Perhaps it's possible, but I wouldn't put too high hopes in that. You should just download the 4.9 CD and reinstall your machine completely to make sure your machine will be running smoothly. Cheers, Jorn
