yes and no

the instructions from wiki are working fine if you
make a own grub-entry and do not forget remove it
after conversion

BUT you need someone for a pwoer-cycle after the upgrade
because "reboot" ends in a kerenl-panic directly after
upgrade (tested in a virtual machine with 4 dsiks / RAID 10)
