I switched my main system about at least a year ago (and later on some mor emachines), and it was without trouble. Be sure to update your config files. The howto even had some points in it that it told had to be done (I think adding init services to runlevels), but they were somehow performed automagically. Only slight problem I noticed: my file systems are being checked for the need to be fscked for two times when booting. If a fsck is started, the first one can be aborted with Ctrl-C as it used to be, the 2nd one cannnot, which can be annoying if the partition is very large and I want to use the PC _now_. I did not investigate this further, whether /etc/init.d/fsck is called for two times or what. I thought it had to do with all my partitions being on LUKS, but I don't even remember why I thought this. Anyway, I think the update is quite safe when you follow the instructions. Wonko
