slackware_upgrade - upgrade process

BACKUP
     Package list : ls -lart /var/log/packages/
     /etc

KERNEL
     The kernel should not be upgraded, if there is a new kernel, this needs
     to be installed first, keeping the running kernel available in the
     lilo.conf.

     - Download kernel packages: # slackpkg download kernel
     - select the kernel-generic and kernel-headers packages
     - the packages will be downloaded to /var/cache/packages/
	If the kernel corresponds to testing it will be
     /var/cache/packages/testing/packages/linux-[VERSION].x/
     - Install the downloaded packages: # installpkg
     /var/cache/packages/[PATH_TO_KERNEL_PACKAGES]
