When upgrading, there is no need for a CD; simply change the repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list . However, I have found it advantageous to do a fresh installation when upgrading. If nothing else, it shows me how much the installation and configuration of Debian has been simplified since my last installation. If you take the trouble to make notes during the installation and write down all the information which must be entered and all the packages which must be loaded, a subsequent installation becomes a very simple matter. And I always check the drive usage before making a fresh installation, to see whether I need to allocate more or less drive space to each of the partitions. Installation is the only occasion on which a normal user gives much consideration to his system configuration. With each installation my system becomes more logical and better optimized for my needs.
