Hehe. When you look at the early revisions of the page, you'll see that
originally it was an article about updating from one *beta* version to
another. Which is indeed not supported. After a series of edits, the
warning got "improved" to the current state ("Updating from one version
to another is unsupported").

As the article no longer applies to beta versions, I think the first
sentence can just be removed.

... minutes later ...

I changed it to:

{{warning|
Performing distribution upgrades in the running system is unsupported
and may result in breakage. For a supported way requiring only one mini
CD, see [[INSTALL%40Network]].
}}

I hope this is more accurate.

Michal
