i, wondering if anyone might be able to share some methods utilized for updating system in "chunks". I hadn't updated in a while, and I would like to go forward with fewer not all the updates at one time. Maybe just working in groups and installing the updates that way could it work?

Please standby for list of packages that are involved.

EDIT: Please see below link for the list of packages. What I'm trying to figure out is if maybe a specific grouping of them could be knocked out, like just the ones moving from a r1 to r2, and leaving the major version changes for later...just to take things slowly and not risk it.

Do @system then do @world

@system is necessary for a foundation. Once it is up and running you can update the @world bits at your pleasure or simply do it all at once without fear of major breakage.

That's exactly what I needed, looks great thanks...brought down substantially to a more reasonable number of packages.

Muchas gracias (en espanol or spanish)
