Just upgraded 6 boxes with a few users online. All upgrades went fine and
the situation seems at least a "good" as with 3.8.2. I'll make alot of
tests this afternoon regarding my compatibility problems. The only problem
I had was last year with a buged version of PMvision wich rebooted the
machine even with an incomplete transfert. I use the "tftp get comos"
command now and upgrade all of my boxes at the same time. As alot of other
PM3 users are, I was very "ComOs" hungry since I've been starving (of
starved) since last december... Didn't wait for user experiences and
jumped right into it...

Good luck to us all.
