I love your analogy but fully agree. Today, with low cost drives, a
regular backup is always a good alternative. We can debate where to
backup to (offsite, removable drive, non-removable) and what to back up.
The bottom line is that an online update whether a simple routine update
or an upgrade to a new release, Murphy is always with us. My recent
experience in trying to create a RAID1 did require me to have to
reinstall from scratch. But, I've been a believer of backups since I was
burned a few times before I even heard of Unix (ie. mid-1970s).
