On my Xubuntu PII I have only done updates, which always take hours. Worst part of the entire process. I leave it in the evening and go to bed. But it has been stable since 5.10. On the other desktop, a Kubuntu box, I have had to do clean installs because for some reason the MoBo and hald have some problems and upgrades seem to make things worse, so clean installs only. Fortunately I partitioned /home to be on its own. The Kubuntu is a P5 with lots of memory and a couple of HDDs and a W2k partition. So it seems to depend on the box in question.
