Hi Derek
Thanks for your feedback !

No thanks to your suggestion to try it now ...
... I already have 2 systems with some issues with 8.04 and 
another, my important one, being preparing for 8.04 with 
a new partition setup !!

At the moment I am not keen nor ready to catch some new issues !!! ;-D

Cheers, svobi
