I have not had as many problems upgrading Debian as I have upgrading
Ubuntu.  In the past I have:
+ changed my sources.list
+ apt-get update
+ apt-get upgrade
 - answer questions as appropriate
 - reboot if necessary
+ check everything is OK
+ apt-get dist-upgrade
 - answer Qs
 - reboot if necessary

Grant.
