upgrade archeos 3.0

[luca]

Hi Marcus,
actually we are working on ArcheOS 4. We hope to release an alpha 
version soon. It will be the official ArcheOS, with a lot of new things 
(repositories to update software, software for SfM adn IBM, etcc...). 
ArcheOS 4will be based on Debian. If you have a little bit of time, you 
can wait for this releas (it should work also on newest hardware). If 
not, you can update the ubuntu system of your archeos 3. The only 
problem probably it will be the archaological menu (that probably will 
be no more avalaible), but, if you know how to start the archaeological 
software, this should be not a problem. All the software should work 
also on ubuntu 10.

There will be a third way, but we never tested it:
Fabrizio Furnari, wrote a metapackage that should be able to change a 
normal Debian system into ArcheOS 4. It is possible that the Metapackage 
works also on Ubuntu (based on Debian), but we never tested it till now. 
If you have to install Ubuntu 10 on a new hardware (without the risk to 
loose data) you could test this way (and maybe send us a feedback :)).

If you need info for enything, just write back in the mailing list or 
contact directly Fabrizio.

Ciao.
