Very minor point: I wrote "All that remains to be done is to rename the 
koha file in /etc/cron.d to koha.old (or plain remove it.)" I should have 
said that I already did it:

paul at server2:/var/log$ sudo cat syslog | grep CRON
Jul 30 16:09:01 server2 CRON[3345]: (root) CMD 
(koha  $KOHAPATH/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -z 2>&1 > 
/dev/null)
Jul 30 16:10:01 server2 CRON[3351]: (root) CMD 
(koha  $KOHAPATH/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -z 2>&1 > 
/dev/null)
Jul 30 16:11:01 server2 CRON[3354]: (root) CMD 
(koha  $KOHAPATH/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -z 2>&1 > 
/dev/null)

Also thanks for correcting the Wiki, but there was something strange going 
on (char set glitch?)  Copy/paste from Firefox to Putty screen gives:

perl .I /usr/share/koha/lib 
/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl .b .w

Not the "." rather than "-" for I, b and w

I did an edit, which worked in the "show preview" so I saved it.

Best - Paul
