my favorite way to upgrade a system is to get a new disk drive. pull the 
old one out, install the new one, do a clean install of the new OS on 
the new disk, THEN reconnect the old one as a slave drive, and mount it 
under /mnt or whatever, and copy my data, settings, etc from the old 
system.  once done, wipe the old drive and reuse for something else.
