Hello,We run Proxmox 1.9 on Debian 6 and i'd desperately love to try v2.0 (been waiting for it to come out of beta for a while) However, we already run Debian 6 on the server. Would it cause a cataclysmic failure to run the upgrade script as it is? Normal logic would predict that it would attempt to dist-upgrade, find no upgrades, and continue. But, I'd rather not find out if its untrue on an important system.I understand this is not the recommended way to update.Anyone experienced in performing such actions on Pve1.9 ?Thanks a lot, James @ BitVPS.COM
 
Proxmox 1.x on Debian 6 is a non tested and non supported mix. So we never tested this but I assume it will work. Test it, e.g. in a VM.
 
Indeed. Will do.

For what its worth, it functions magnificently on Debian 6. I will report back my findings as I assume there are others in the same boat as me. Thanks for your time, James
 
I can confirm the script works just fine with Debian 6 already running. No errors, everything went perfectly. Thanks for an *AWESOME* upgrade script. It is extremely resilient.
 
thanks for feedback!
