    Can someone tell me what would happen under the following scenario --

    * I do a complete Linux backup under YAST, selecting all of the
    various options to make sure I include everything.
    * I immediately upgrade Linux to a later version (say going from 8.1
    to 8.2).
    * Something is hosed, so I want to go back to the 8.1 version I had
    before I did the install.

    Would a full recovery using YAST get me back to what I had before -- back to
    my 8.1 with everything intact and working?

    Thanks,
    Greg Wallace
