I'd personally suggest that people who insist on upgrading remotely (and who 
absolutely require that it works) invest $300 US in a PC Weasel 
(http://www.realweasel.com) to a modem/serial concentrator or use KVM-over-IP 
(or a similar remote management solution) for those times when it doesn't run 
smoothly.

Because, uhh, you know, it doesn't always....

:)

Just my $0.0.2 ...

Cheers,

AS
