What is the definitive answer to doing a 'make upgrade' on a production
system running an older 2.2.x - is it ok to do it at the multiuser level,
or must one bring the system to single-user mode, hence denying services
during the duration of this rather long process??
The ``Making the world'' tutorial talks about this in section 3, but is
full of "may"'s and "if"'s and doesn't give me a whole lot of confidence.
