It doesn't handle -stable, and it doesn't handle going from the current
situation which is "it's still snapshots rather than release but there's
no suffix" to the forthcoming release.
I've now upgraded a couple of systems from 6.8 -stable, using
"sysupgrade -r", through 6.9 and then 7.0 (rebuilding and rebooting
after patches). They seem fine. Any gotchas with this?
To put it another way, what is the recommended way of upgrading a
production system with patches applied (so -stable)?
Thanks,
Steve
