Make a backup, make a snapshot, download the latest sources. Just be careful with mergemaster. I would do it by hand. If you can't compile the latest sources on the old machine, go to 10.0 first. I do not think that you have to go through all releases between. 10.0 might be the only obstacle. Erich
