1) Ideally you should issue '*Unplug' before upgrading and note anything
listed.

2) I'd '*RmReinit <module>' everything listed at this point.

3) Do the upgrade and then '*Unplug <module>' everything listed if you
want to regain the original unplugged state.

4) Do '*Unplug' to check the list is the same as it was originally.


Steps 2 & 3 might not be needed if your unplugged modules are in the same
positions in the new ROM.

If you don't have anything unplugged you needn't worry.
