This is not a development question, so you should ask this in one of the fora or read the manual!
But to answer your question...you can't upgrade an entire OS by using the blades option (which is something like windows update). You need to boot from the sme 5.1.2 cd and choose for upgrade instead of full install at one of the first screens. Hope this helps.
