I have not done this. I have some comments on dselect in the
README-upgrade. That will be in ../slink/main/upgrade-i386 in the
archives. (It is now in Incoming; Dark is trying to teach me how to
upload a .changes file for a non-package.) That directory will be
symlinked to a top level directory in the CD called upgrade/ or
upgrade-i386.

When I tried that URL, lynx reported:
The requested URL /2.1/HOWTO.upgrade was not found on this server
My README-upgrade is primarily addressed to users upgrading from
pre 2.0 versions using apt-get dist-upgrade or cd_autoup.sh, but it
has a few comments, particularly about split packages, that would be
helpful for upgraders from hamm.
The autoup-README that has been posted in the Developers Corner
of www.debian.org refers to using the standalone autoup.sh script.
