Uhmm,, no not true depending on version. I just upgraded from 6.1(4) to 6.2 and in fact used copy tftp flash: I went from 5.2(1) TO 5.2(5) via this method as well.
Things to watch for though are version transitions. Going from 5.x to 6.x will require a new activation code. You can get a DES version key by sending your information to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and tell them what version you are going to. They need the serial number and I believe the current activation key. On older versions of code, you need to step-up one revision at a time. This is not the case with newer versions, however it is recommended if you are going more that a couple revisions ahead.

You should then upgrade PDM, which you do the traditional way. I just did this a couple of days ago and it worked fine.
