I just upgraded two 1.4.3 boxes to 1.5.2, and it worked for me! The
only problem I had was that it overwrote root's ".cshrc", ".profile",
and crontab, and there's an open PR on that already.

How far along does sysinstall fail for you? When it fails, does it
dump you into the shell, or panic, or what?
