I need some help.
I need to upgrade my Sco O.S.506 to 507 and told me that I need to reinstall
all the operative system and not the upgrading of it.
Is it true ?
Thanks in advance and excuse me if before someone alredy answered this query
but I do not find anything about this matter

bye
Roberto

While In-Place Upgrades do now work considerably better than they did a
few years ago, I *still* counsel against them.

Use my savefiles script, make good backups, and then a fresh install.

I had same problem, and I was unable to upgrade . Only fresh reinstall was Ok.
