SUMMARY: Quick OS upgrade question

Original question:

I have a 4100 box running Tru64 4.0D JPK4, and AdvFS. I want to install
Tru64 4.0E but due to some problems, I think update install wouldn't be
the best practice.

The question is: It is possible to perform a fresh install over the
existing root and usr partitions
and then advscan to restore other advfs partitions? Is any drawback for
this operation?

Solution:

It is possible to fresh install the OS without any problem. Then you
have to restore /etc/fdmns and fstab or advscan and mount the filesets.
I just did it and everything is going smoothly, the next step is to
restore users/passwords and it's ready!

Thank you all for your quick and answers...
