About one month ago I posed to the list about upgrading from FC1 to FC3 and I were told that it would be like a madness, so I made a CLEAN INSTALL.. and didn't anything to regret then. It's worth and I also recommend that way. Setting up your new FC3 will take you a couple of days, but you would be free of inconsistencies. You also can have a look at the archives of this list belonging to the last November.. Cheers
