Make sure you allocate the time.  It will probably be upwards of 2 hours
depending on how many packages you have installed.  It has to upgrade
each one individually which is very time consuming and has a bit to do
with your raw IO speed.  If you have SCSI, it will be much faster than
IDE (in general).
