 I used apt-get .Beware that at the last upgrade the dist-upgrade didn't
caught
some dependencies order so I had to

cd /var/cache/apt/archives
dpkg -i packagename.deb

for 3 or 4 packages.
then again
apt-get dist-upgrade

Now this can be changed now as fixes had been uploaded inbetween
testcycles
this week.One more thing ,keep a copy of lilo_21-4.storm_i386.deb handy
(can be downloaded from the storm archive) just in case you forget and
say yes at lilo postconfig (safe would be to say no) since you don;t
have a
use for reinstalling lilo. 
As for exact sources(inlcuding the available storm-packages) in order to
upgrade check my webpage.
