This does sounds 'scary' as I am planning to do this in the (near) future...

Has anyone else experienced issues like this?

Generally I do build the new system software on a running system, but 
then go to single user mode to perform the actual install.

I have done many upgrades like that over 18 or so years and never seen 
or heard of an issue alike this.

Thanks!
