Tried to upgrade today using the dvd, then the cds and 8.1 does not recognize
the packages of 7.3 or that it is even 7.3 installed. After the kernel loads
into ram, all the hardware is recognized, but I cannot upgrade. I tried the
normal installation and then the installation with safe settings, and still
the same problem. Ran updatedb as root then tried again and the same
problem.
Anyone have any suggestions to fix this so I can upgrade?

p.s. new install in Not an option - please do not even suggest it.
