Installing 4.2.1 onto 5.0b2

[B Byars]

Mike, 

You can install them both without any conflicts.  However, you 
should be carteful in that GRASS 5.0 generates different data 
formats than 4.2.  We currently have 4 different versions running 
on thesame machine (Sun Ultra Enterprise) without any problems 
at all.  If you have any more questions, shoot me an email.
