sysupgrade - has anybody tried it

[herbert langhans <w3%langhans.com.pl@localhost>]

Hi List,
cowardly I procrastinate updating my laptop to 6.0. There is no bootable
device built in (IBM Thinkpad X31), I have installed NetBSD by taking
the harddisk out, put it into a PC and ran the installation from CD.

Anyway - I see sysupgrade can do the trick without all the hassle. My
question is - has somebody sucessfully updated from 5.1.2 to 6.0? Any
traps there? I read in the NetBSD-Doku that sysupgrade is still
'undergoing field testing' by August 2012 ...

Cheers
