How can I do a "non-destructive" upgrade from 2.0R to 2.0.5?  I was 
thinking about the following:

    pull in the sources, 
    recompile,  
    Backup to tape, 
    make fs changes,
    Restore from tape.

Will this work, or do the filesystem changes preclude this?  

Is there an easier way?


Thanks,


Paul
