But if you can't afford the downtime, you can take the approach I use here, get things tested and working on the new system, and then, when you're ready for the real migration, drop its database, dump the db from the old system and install it on the new system, rsync the media and template directories from the old box, then edit install.db to pretend the install is 1.10.4 and run `make upgrade` from the 2.0 tarball again. Then you can switch over pretty quickly. > > HTH, > > David > > -- Maik Arnold webit!
