    I wrote a bunch of alternatives, but the reply got rejected cause it was too
    long aparently. To make things simple: no, there isn't anything out there
    like Live Upgrade for any linux distribution AFAIK.

    Alternatives: Disk image + your favorite updater.. that way you just swap
    the drive if something goes wrong and bingo.
