    Running current version of Jpilot under Debian Testing.  Just discovered that I can change to the newer database style in Jpilot.  Just one problem - when I do, it bombs my device, a Tungsten E2.
    
    So far, I have done the following:
    
    * Simply switch databases - nothing shows up in the newer database, which as near as I can tell is normal
    
    * Sync, backup, switch, then sync - data arrives, but then the palm dies, giving an error with a bad address table.  On reset, it will bomb again when the device POSTs, forcing a hard reset and a restore-backup.
    
    Export data from the old database, switch into a CSV file, and then attempt an import from CSV - and the second I hit import, Jpilot dies.  (I don't have an error dump on this yet, as I was running straight from X.org.)
    
    So that said, two questions.
    
    1) Is this a knkown issue?
    
    2) Is there a more "correct" version to do the migration?
