Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] 1.3.5_etc_migration_problem

Is it possible your config media is full?  That's the only problem I've
run into with save-config.  I'm using an floppy image in VMware.  

1.3.5 saves the new config under a different name and leaves the old
config alone.  If there aren't room for both, then save-config will
fail.  I don't remember the exact error message, as most of the time
there is room for both configs on a single floppy.  

Once you are comfortable 1.3.5 works, you can delete the old config
file.  Or you can backup the old config somewhere else and delete it
from your primary media to make room for the new config.
