Perhaps I should mention a problem I had upgrading Etch to Lenny. I made a Debian bug report about it because it seemed like it might be a general Debian issue, but now I'm not so sure.
The gist of the issue is that df stops working after coreutils is upgraded until the system is rebooted with a new kernel. This causes any package upgrade that depends on df (such as mysql) to fail - which causes the whole upgrade procedure to fail. I managed to get it going again by replacing df with a shell script that just echo'ed a pretend output for df.
