AS8200 -> GS60 upgrade: Which comes first, the OS or the Hardwar e?

We're looking to upgrade our 8200 to a GS60. Since the GS60 would be
running EV6 processors, would we need to upgrade our OS from 4.0d to 4.0f
(or above) before the hardware portion? or can we do the hardware, and then
the OS?

We were thinking that we would need to do the OS first because we assumed
that 4.0d would die a miserable death if it saw an EV6 processor, but we
just thought we should ask the experts.

Thanks,

John
