Actually it just won't update and it crashed, so I had        be> to reinstall Ubuntu (just like Windows).        be> In Debian, dist-upgrade works just fine. So far, I use sid for a year        be> and feel it like more stable than Ubuntu.              I agree.       Ubuntu told me that there are no further updates, and you need to reinstall a       newer version to get security updates.       LTS Long Time Support releases are a bit better ... but still.               be> I don't think there should be any file compatibility issues if we are        be> talking about storage. If both have ext4 you are good to go (maybe,        be> different file systems are also fine, but I cannot guarantee since I        be> never tested that). I exchange files regularly between my Debian and        be> Gentoo laptops (both ext4) it's more than compatible.              btrfs should be also fine.       I have a strong feeling that it will be the next "default" file system.              CU, Ricsi              ...
