Hi Yuri and Mojca,

As far as I am concerned, I have a little file named « basic-test.tex » containing the lines below: eveytime I update the minimals (well… almost everytime), before doing so, I proceed as follows:
1) I make a backup copy of my existing and working context-minimals

2) I run first-setup.sh to update to the latest context-minimals

3) I typeset the file « basic-test.tex »: if everything works I keep a zipped archive of the old installation and I delete the backup copy. If the new installation doesn't work I delete the updated context-minimals and go back to my old installation (and I complain to Mojca, Hans, Taco, and the list…).

Here is this little file:
%% file basic-test.tex
\starttext
\chapter{Testing a chapter\footnote{Actually for testing footnotes in a chapter header\dots}}

This file has been typeset 
on \currentdate{} 
at \currenttime, 
with 
\doifmodeelse{mkiv}
	{mkiv, 
	LuaTeX version \the\luatexversion,
	LuaTeX revision \luatexrevision,
	(LuaTeX date stamp \luatexdatestamp),
	using the command: \crlf
	\type{context basic-test.tex}\crlf}
	{mkii, 
	using the command: \crlf
	\type{texexec basic-test.tex} \crlf}
	ConTeXt version \contextversion.

\section{Testing a section\footnote{Actually for testing footnotes in a section header\dots}}

An elementary identity: $(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$. And a well-known identity due to Leonhard Euler in which the five most important numbers appear:
\placeformula
\startformula
{\rm e}^{{\rm i}\pi} + 1 = 0.
\stopformula
By the way, $\int_{0}^{2\pi} \sin(x)dx = 0$, while
\startformula
\int_{0}^{2\pi} \sin^2(x)dx = \pi.
\stopformula

\startitemize[r]

\item Testing items and footnotes\footnote{This is a silly remark\dots}

\item\footnote{This is a silly remark, inside an item\dots} testing items and footnotes

\stopitemize

And a final test\footnote{This is another silly remark but outside items\dots}  of a footnote.

\stoptext

%% end file basic-test.tex

Best regards: OK
