Ok - I just had a thought - if I make a floppy boot disk, then 
comment out /boot in /etc/fstab and reboot the server with the floppy 
in the drive will the server start up?

if so I should be able to do the upgrade, then remount the /dev/hda2 
/boot partition and copy the updated boot files across, then 
re-enable /boot in /etc/fstab then do my lilo stuff, reboot the 
server again and we should have a happily upgraded server?

or am I completely insane? :)
