I just did a similar upgrade. It did not lock up on the nvidia 440 MX
chipset on my AMD64 box. It did go into a panic loop after the install
and I had to hand reboot it. I am now picking up the pieces trying to get
mail and postgrey to work correctly again. (As well as cursing that pine
has such a stupid license that it cannot be included in core.)
