Hi > Since this is something that potentially almost everyone would need at > least once this should be made very easy for the end user. I am not sure what you mean. I have penty of machines that are 32 bits and simply cannot run 64 bits. If I ever replace one 32 bits machines with a 64 bits new machine, I will simply re-install everything from scratch, it's safer (can run the 2 machines in parallel until the new on eis ready) and simplier, and gives me opportunity for a good cleanup (I will not reinstall all the bits and pieces that I only installed for testing purpose and never used after that). Best regards, Olivier
