+targets like `nodedistro-f22` can be used to change a node's fcdistro
+
+
+## testing upgrade (one node)
+
+testing a node upgrade; we start from a f20 myplc and upgrade the node to f22
+
+### Init
+
+    f20
+    bond22
+    rung
+
+### Upgrade the node
+    
+    run nodedistro-f22         upgrade
+    
+### Reinstall - back to square 1
+
+       run nodedistro-f20 reinstall
+    
+### Complete test sequence (containers)
+
+A fairly decent test suite in this context is to run this
+
+**Subject build is f>=18**
+
+    run nodedistro-f20 reinstall reboot nodedistro-f22 upgrade reboot reinstall reboot
+
+The only thing missing with this is to test bootmanager in the context of a f14 bootCD
+
+### Complete test sequence (mixed vservers+containers)
+
+If on the contrary the build under test is a f14, then run instead this; upgrading a f14 node to f>=18 is not supported due to /vservers being an ext3 filesystem
+
+    run nodedistro-f14 reinstall reboot nodedistro-f22 reinstall reboot upgrade reboot
+
+### Run bootmanager interactively during upgrade
+To deploy experimental bootmanager code:
+
+* Insert breakpoints in the bootmanager code
+* turn on `BREAKPOINT_MODE = True` in `utils.py`
+* `make sync` 
+
+Then 
+
+    run nodedistro-f22 debug-mode
+    testnodedbg
+    
+    cd /tmp/source
+    ./BootManager.py upgrade
+    
+Beware that when running installation in debug mode, some stuff like iirc `vgcreate` wait for 'y' for confirmation
