Looking forward to beta6 fixing the Upgrade issues otherwise we might not have enough time left before SP-0 is cast in stone.

Since you always write "re-ipl" I assume you are speaking about
SystemZ?
I can only test x86-64, and there upgrade works since several
Betas without real problems (means there are only cosmetic ones
and that you cannot register yet). And yes, you can ignore popups
that the network configuration couldn't be adjusted, you don't want
that this works.

But I cannot find any bug report for System Z upgrade problems.

Beside that: I did never understand and I think I will never understand
why people wants to make an upgrade of production machines from one
major release to another.
Upgrade always needs much more time and the machine is out of production
during that time.
