 **NOTE:** AstLinux supports retaining multiple versions in the %%'%%''os''%%'%% directory.  To determine which revision is booted, a %%'%%''ver''%%'%% file is used.  This ''ver'' file should contain a single line that lists the version to boot (for example: astlinux-0.6.1)  If no ''ver'' file is present, the boot loader will load the 'highest revision', determined alphabetically (so 0.6-2011 would be newer than 0.6.2).  So be careful if upgrading from an SVN version! **NOTE:** AstLinux supports retaining multiple versions in the %%'%%''os''%%'%% directory.  To determine which revision is booted, a %%'%%''ver''%%'%% file is used.  This ''ver'' file should contain a single line that lists the version to boot (for example: astlinux-0.6.1)  If no ''ver'' file is present, the boot loader will load the 'highest revision', determined alphabetically (so 0.6-2011 would be newer than 0.6.2).  So be careful if upgrading from an SVN version!

 +If your existing 0.6 installation has NICs of more than one type (different chipsets/drivers), there is the possibility that the numbering of these NICs under 0.6 (eg ''eth0'', ''eth1'', etc) will change once upgraded to 0.7. Please bear this in mind, especially if attempting a remote upgrade. For an explanation, see [[userdoc:tt_change_net_hardware|Changing Network Hardware]].
