Before upgrading your system, it is strongly recommended that you make a full backup, or at least back up any data or configuration information you can't afford to lose.
The upgrade tools and process are quite reliable, but a hardware failure in the middle of an upgrade could result in a severely damaged system.
For the greatest reliability of the upgrade process, you may wish to remove third-party packages from your system before you begin upgrading.
This procedure also assumes your system has been updated to the latest point release of etch.
If you want to generate boot media that will work on more hardware than just the machine you're generating it on, you should leave the line as ” etch systems without third-party packages.
If these packages were installed by adding an extra package archive in your , you should check if that archive also offers packages compiled for lenny and change the source line accordingly at the same time as your source lines for Debian packages.
