If it were me, I'd just upgrade the box as-is by buildworld; 5 and 6
are close enough that major problems aren't too likely (of course,
this is 'in general'; a single occurance of a major problem isn't much
globally, but it sure does hurt when it happens to you ;).  Unless
something goes wrong, your downtime is two reboots.
