I upgraded from 6.1 to 6.2 last week following Eric's points which I like
for being clear and precise. The only issue you need to be cautious about
is when using mergmaster to merge changes for files you may have modified
in /etc/
I messed it up and as a result had to recrate /etc from a back up that I
accidentally (mind you!) made before upgrading.
Good luck!
