COM Server problem

After updating an application used as a COM server my application failed to access it correctly.
What to do?
Open a DOS prompt navigate to the directory of the new COM server,
type:
TheComServerName /regserver

To unregister a COM server type:
 TheComServerName /unregserver

Does it work? Yes -> don't f#%k with it

Running an ubuntu server 8.04 without any really hazel. Then you get stupid thoughts. There is an upgrade 10.10 why don't I upgrade. Its newer and probably better,faster,cooler.
You don't think it through, yeeah I want the latest, no backup, haven't time.
Then the shit hits the fan, during the upgrade you get questions about different config-file, do you want to replace or keep, you really don't know for sure, but you want the new version up and running NOW.
Then when upgrade is completed, the server doesn't start. Then you remember all you data that might be lost due to the Raid Server that wont start. Database, subversion data, music...
But there are help out there, I finally figured out what the problem was. The two disks was targeting different raids md0 and md_d0 . There are heroes out on the net, mine today is called Milli
