A few weeks ago I had also the Debian 1.1 installed on one of the systems.
This system had an FTP connection via PPP (28.8kb), but I just instructed
the dselect to upgrade everything over FTP from the ftp.bebian.org.
It took the whole night to get the *.deb packages.
Then, the next day I started the "configure" phase.
There were many problems, most of them related to the lack of the
/usr/X11R6/lib in the /etc/ld.so.conf (finally, I added this line manually
and have run the ldconfig).
The system was all the time operational and there were no any hangs.
After many "dpkg -C"/"dpkg --configure xxx" I got it clean.
In a summary: I believe you don't risk much attempting to install all packages.

It will be running all the time.
