My vote? Mandrake with urpmi. I've upgraded 9.x boxes to 10.x boxes. Done
10.0 Community -> 10.0 Official -> 10.1 Community (with a bit of cooker) ->
10.1 Official and all has gone great. Update all your sources, type urpmi
--auto-select, and away you go. It's been nearly flawless for me. The only
glitches happen with the file lists (on the server) sometimes get a bit out
of wack. But that rarely happens.
