Hi, I have a Sun E420R running gutsy and as is it approaching EOL, I
would like to upgrade it to hardy so I can get LTS support.  However, I
did attempt this once and it had disastrous results.  It would seem the
upgrade took, but upon rebooting the server, about half way through the
startup, the console started to display garbled characters, couldn't
even SSH to it and rendered it useless.  I ended up having to re-install
gutsy and restore the server from backups.  I would really enjoy doing
an upgrade and have it work like it should, thus I have been scared to
make any attempt at it again.  I guess my question is, has there been
any luck with doing a successful upgrade from gutsy to hardy on sparc64
arch?  As I stated before, I (and I am sure many others) would like to
upgrade before gutsy goes EOL, but would like to do so with confidence
it will work as it should.  Thanks.
