That would work , unless you do crazy things. The upgrade script
mounts the filesystems using the fstab on the system to be upgraded.

Non-default partitions and upgrades

[Paul Pace]

Hello!

I generally try and run things as a project recommends, but I am 
wondering about running different additional partitions (e.g., add 
/var/www) or changing partition letter (e.g., move /var to the end for 
convenient VPS expansion).


I know it isn't the biggest thing in the world, but would this ever have 
an impact on running version upgrades?


Thank you,

Paul
